Mere Apologetics by Alister E Mcgrath
Throughout history there have been great and articulate defenders of the faith, from Augustine and Aquinas to Jonathan Edwards, G. K. Chesterton, Francis Schaeffer, and C. S. Lewis. But with new challenges comes the need for a fresh apologetic that specifically addresses the arguments levied against faith in our time of scientific atheism and skepticism. In the spirit of C. S. Lewis's Mere Christianity, Alister McGrath's Mere Apologetics seeks to equip readers to engage gracefully and intelligently with the challenges facing the faith today while drawing appropriately on the wisdom of the past. Rather than supplying the fine detail of every apologetic issue in order to win arguments, Mere Apologetics teaches a method that appeals not only to the mind but also to the heart and the imagination. This highly accessible, easy-to-read book is perfect for pastors, teachers, students, and lay people who want to speak clearly and lovingly to the issues that confront people of faith today.Professor of Theology, Ministry, and Education at King's College, London, Alister E.McGrath is the Head of the Centre for Theology, Religion, and Culture. He is the author of several best-selling books, including Wiley-Blackwell's The Christian Theology Reader (4th edition, 2011), Theology: The Fundamental Readings (2nd edition, 2011), Science and Religion (2nd edition, 2010), and Dawkins' God: Genes, Memes, and the Meaning of Life (2004).
