A Reasoned Defense of the Faith: Collected Essays in Christian Apologetics

A Reasoned Defense of the Faith is a theologically rigorous and intellectually engaging collection of essays that explore the enduring importance of Christian apologetics in a skeptical, relativistic, and pluralistic age. Drawing from the evidential and classical traditions and firmly rooted in Lutheran theology, Adam S. Francisco presents a thoughtful and compelling case for the rational defense of the Christian faith, grounded in historical evidence, natural law, and theological clarity. These essays address a wide range of critical apologetic themes, including the authority and reliability of Scripture, the historical reality of the resurrection, the role of natural law in moral reasoning, and the complexities of interreligious dialogue―particularly with Islam.
