“...When apologetics becomes something aimed to help us fight, or to help us feel secure, the gospel itself seems somehow lost in the battle.

Subsequently, the gospel is not presented as good news, or even average news. On the contrary, the gospel is presented as something that proves: I am right."

I agree, so how do we who wish to defend our faith avoid this pitfall.

..but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence; (1 Peter 3:15)
