Did you know God has called you to be an apologist? No, I didn’t say to apologize! An apologist is a defender of the faith (cf Jude 1:3). To defend the faith (the Bible, God, salvation, etc.) is the command God gives His followers.
1 Peter 3:15 tells us, “But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear.”
The Roman statesman Seneca observed, “If you want a man to keep his head when crises comes, you must give him some training before it comes!”
That is part of our mission at Rod and Staff Ministries—a mission to equip and prepare God’s people to disciple and counsel other followers of Christ and also to defend and persuade non-believers (apologetics work) to follow our Savior.
Why not consider our training now? Every opportunity to win people to Christ is a God event. Get ready now!
