Apologetics refers to an area of Christian theology that engages in a rational, evidential defense of the Christian world view. The origin of the word comes from the Greek, apologia, meaning to make a reasoned defense.
It is the aim of Lord’s Grace and the Chinese Bible Church of San Diego to equip its members to defend their beliefs with truth and grace in accordance with 1 Peter 3:15.
