What does it mean to give a defense for our faith, and why does it matter? We are called to always be ready to share the reason for our hope and to stand firm in what has been entrusted to us. A strong foundation strengthens our faith, equips us to engage graciously with unbelievers, and helps us support fellow believers who wrestle with doubts. It also calls us to study, to love God with our whole mind, and to rely on His power to tear down false arguments and lead thoughts captive to Christ.
