Philosopher and apologist Douglas Groothuis presents a great article on Six Enemies Of Apologetic Engagement from the Bethinking.org website. His purpose is briefly to lay out six factors that illegitimately inhibit apologetic engagement today. If these barriers are removed, our apologetic witness may grow into what it should be in Christ:
1. Indifference
2. Irrationalism
3. Ignorance
4. Cowardice
5. Arrogance and intellectual vanity
6. Superficial techniques or schlock apologetics
Be sure to read the article in its fullness.
PDF also available.
Enjoy.
