Reviews

"Only biblical Christianity provides the intellectual framework needed to make sense of the world. This is the message of Steven R. Martins' book Apologetics: Studies in Biblical Apologetics for a Christian Worldview. It provides a comprehensive introduction to learning how to think like a Christian and why it is necessary to do so. As Martins explains, even the meaning of life can only be found in the God of the Bible. His book provides a rigorous defense of Christianity as well as an explanation of why Christians should be optimistic for the future. This is just what is needed to prepare God's people to stand humbly yet confidently when facing the challenges of the twenty-first century."-Michael Wagner (PhD), Contributing writer at Reformed Perspective magazine; Author of Leaving God Behind: The Charter of Rights and Canada's Official Rejection of Christianity
"This book, Apologetics: Studies in Biblical Apologetics for a Christian Worldview, offers a holistic Christian worldview, which is the foundation for an apologetic of the faith once and for all delivered to the saints. It will sharpen and encourage you in your effort to make disciples of all nations."-Jacob Reaume (MDiv), Senior Pastor of Trinity Bible Chapel; Chancellor of King Alfred Academy, Cambridge, Ontario
"It has been my personal privilege to serve alongside Steven R. Martins to equip the saints by example to preach Christ in the public square. This book, Apologetics, will further serve this purpose. Steven's faithful exegesis in the opening chapter of our Lord's apologetic mandate in 1 Peter 3 gives rise to a biblical methodology as individually accessible and actionable as the very Apostle who penned it. I highly recommend this timely resource to all saints needing to get equipped to faithfully proclaim to every creature a holy and hopeful defense of Christ's gospel and lordship."-Cory McKenna, Founding President of The Cross Current (TCC); Speaker with Answers in Genesis Canada, London, Ontario
