Uncover the intellectual riches of Christian apologetics with our inspiring guest, Amy Hall, who shares how C.S. Lewis's "Mere Christianity" transformed her understanding of faith. Together, we journey through the foundational importance of apologetics, rooted in scriptures like 1 Peter 3:15 and Jude 3, and how it empowers believers to articulate their faith with conviction. Amy highlights the significance of being prepared to answer personal questions, build confidence, and engage with others meaningfully. We spotlight resources like William Lane Craig's "On Guard" and Nancy Pearcey's works to help navigate philosophical arguments and cultural issues, offering a compass for those seeking to deepen their understanding of apologetics.
