Apologetics. For some people, the word evokes in the imagination people having rich dialogue about the big questions of life, faith, church, philosophy, and many more topics pertaining to God, in a good natured dialogue of wrestling with honest questions. But for some, the word evokes in the imagination people having petty arguments about God’s existence, getting angry, not listening to those friends with sincere questions of faith, and having debates around secondary questions like how old the Earth is. So my question is this: is apologetics inherently bad? Are there ways of doing apologetics that avoid pettiness and getting into a ‘us vs them’ posture? We’ll be exploring this and a range of other things with Justin Brierley.

Justin has been working in radio, podcasting and video for almost two decades. He hosts the Unbelievable? radio show and podcast on Premier Christian Radio, as well as the Ask NT Wright Anything podcast. He is Theology and Apologetics Editor for Premier Christian Radio and occasionally contributes to other shows and podcasts from the London-based station. Justin was also editor of Premier Christianity magazine from 2014-2018, for which he continues to contribute articles. Justin's first book 'Unbelievable? Why, after ten years of talking with atheists, I'm still a Christian' (SPCK) was published in 2017.
