In this short video, Dr Joe Boot discusses the need for Christians to be active in the "defence and confirmation of the gospel" - apologetics - as set out in 1 Peter 3:15. "Defending the faith", Joe tells us, as Paul did on the Areopagus, is necessary both within and without the Church.
The Church has practiced apologetics "right down the centuries", Joe reminds us, and its purpose has always been to preserve the purity of the gospel and to answer objections to Christian belief.
