Christians are regularly confronted with questions, doubts, and challenges that test the foundations of their faith. Defending Our Hope is a clear and accessible introduction to Reformed apologetics, designed to equip believers to respond with biblical clarity and theological depth. Grounded in Scripture and shaped by the insights of Cornelius Van Til, this course explores the nature of worldviews, the role of presuppositions, the significance of common grace, and the proper use of evidence in bearing witness to the gospel.
Apologetics is not merely the task of scholars or pastors—it is the calling of every believer. As Peter exhorts us, we must always be “prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you” (1 Pet. 3:15). That hope is not grounded in human wisdom or personal experience, but in the historical and glorious resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. Whether you’re new to apologetics or seeking to deepen your understanding, this course will help you defend the faith with confidence, humility, and a heart devoted to the risen Lord.
Total course duration: 6 hours, 13 minutes.
