      Introduction

      In his first epistle, Peter admonished Christians to be ready to give unbelievers the reason for their hope in Jesus Christ. In order to do so, they would have to be able to articulate and then defend their faith. The defense that they give would have to be reasonable and sustainable. This was an early call for Christians to be defenders or apologists of the Christian faith.

      This commission continues to the present-day Christian. The Logos Apologetics Series is developed as a resource for Christians who want to understand apologetics and the apologetic discipline presently.
