A Practical Definition for Apologetics

Whenever the word apologetics comes into a conversation, there are different connotations come to mind.  One is “why do I have to apologize for what I believe.”  Another thought comes to mind, in recent days, is about how we might defend the faith or respond to non-believers questions.  In some situations we might be needing to apologize for HOW we present our case.

Prayer and the Apologist

Prayer is a spiritual discipline that helps us, as followers of Jesus Christ, to practice the presence of God. It is a privilege for us to partake in the I/You (God) relationship that we have with our Lord.  Prayer brings us to the place where we abandon our pride before a holy and loving God. Prayer is the place where we worship and have our hope lifted. It is a time to intercede for others, and make supplications. When we come to the Lord in prayer it is about aligning our will with God’s will, adopting humility, and claiming our dependence upon God.
