Defending the Faith: Where Do I Start?
If you are wondering where to begin to learn how to defend the faith you are in the right place. The beginning can seem like a daunting place to be, below are some tips to help get you started.
1) Read the Bible daily. You can find many good plans on YouVersion. In order to defend the faith you must know what you believe.
2) Be prepared to share why you are a Christian. If you haven’t ever written out your testimony that’s a great starting point. Writing it can help prepare you for conversations with others as you explain the reasons why you chose to be a Christian.
3) Start reading! The more we train for conversations we will have with people who aren’t Christians, the better equipped we will be when that time comes. One book that is extremely helpful in this area is Tactics by Greg Koukl. For more suggestions please view our Recommended Reading page.
I had never thought about writing out my testimony…..I think that is an excellent idea to bring into focus why I am a Christian. Thank you for suggesting it….I think it is a very good starting point for me.
You’re welcome. That sounds great about starting. 🙂
