Christian Apologetics as Cross-Cultural Dialogue

A call for a new understanding of apologetics, moving away from appeals to tran-cultural rationality, arguing for a new form of cross-cultural dialogue.>

Summary

Christian apologetics is in crisis. Old concepts do no longer hold and post-modern development pose new questions. The author argues for an apologetic witness that is an exercise in cross-cultural dialogue aimed at persuading our conversation partners of the relevance of a life centred on the reality revealed in Jesus Christ.
