Apologetics is the defense of the Christian faith, and it was crucially important to J. Gresham Machen. He dedicated his scholarly output to defending essential points of the faith against modernistic reinterpretations. In this lesson, Dr. Nichols defines apologetics and Machen’s approach to apologetics, underscoring its role in exposing error and preserving the gospel as well as its role in bolstering our faith.
