Exciting stuff … Rising Christian Apologists

Decision Magazine has posted its interview with atheist-turned-Christian-apologist Lee Strobel. Strobel gives an overview of the apologetics landscape and provides a useful list of some rising Christian apologists.

I’m excited about the landscape of Christian apologetics right now. We’ve got some terrific young scholars and experts who are rising to the surface. People like Sean McDowell, Chad Meister, Mike Licona, Alex McFarland, Greg Koukl, Mark Mittelberg. There are a lot of really sharp individuals whom God is using to provide Christians with strong reasons for their faith. And I think we’re going to continue to see young apologists who are well-trained, godly individuals. I’m seeing more seminaries and more Christian colleges taking apologetics seriously.

I think we’re seeing a new dawn for Christian apologetics. The time is right for Christians to stand up in a humble but persuasive way to tell the world that our beliefs in Jesus Christ are rooted in a strong bedrock of historical reality.

Strobel has his own stockpile of apologetics resources. Also, for more on apologetics, see John Frame’s Apologetics to the Glory of God and his website.
