Narrative Apologetics
Sharing the Relevance, Joy, and Wonder of the Christian Faith
Author: Alister E. McGrathNarrator: Tom ParksRuntime: 5.1 Hrs. - UnabridgedRegular Price: $15.99 Member Price: $12.79 (or 3 credits)Regular Price: $15.99 Member Price: $12.79 (or 3 credits)'The Bible is a narrative--the story of God's creation, humankind's fall, and God's plan of redemption. And it is filled with countless smaller stories that teach us about people, history, and the nature of God. It's no surprise that God would choose to reveal himself to us in story--after all, he hardwired us for story. Despite this, we so often attempt to share our faith with others not through story but through systems, arguments, and talking points--methods that appeal only to our mind and neglect our imagination and our emotions. In this groundbreaking book, scholar and author Alister McGrath lays a foundation for narrative apologetics. Exploring four major biblical narratives, enduring stories from our culture such as Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings and Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia, and personal narratives from people such as Augustine of Hippo and Chuck Colson, McGrath shows how we can both understand and share our faith in terms of story.'Learn More -
Mere Apologetics
How To Help Seekers And Skeptics Find Faith
Author: Alister E. McGrathNarrator: Shaun GrindellRuntime: 6.5 Hrs. - UnabridgedRegular Price: $19.99 Member Price: $15.99 (or 4 credits)Regular Price: $19.99 Member Price: $15.99 (or 4 credits)Throughout history there have been great and articulate defenders of the faith, from Augustine and Aquinas to Jonathan Edwards, G. K. Chesterton, Francis Schaeffer, and C. S. Lewis. But with new challenges comes the need for a fresh apologetic that specifically addresses the arguments levied against faith in our time of scientific atheism and skepticism. In the spirit of C. S. Lewis's Mere Christianity, Alister McGrath's Mere Apologetics seeks to equip listeners to engage gracefully and intelligently with the challenges facing the faith today while drawing appropriately on the wisdom of the past. Rather than supplying the fine detail of every apologetic issue in order to win arguments, Mere Apologetics teaches a method that appeals not only to the mind but also to the heart and the imagination. This highly accessible book is perfect for pastors, teachers, students, and lay people who want to speak clearly and lovingly to the issues that confront people of faith today.Learn More
