Synopsis

Much of the New Testament was written in urban settings, in which the Christian communities had to deal head-on with issues such as race, equality, justice, sexuality, money, and economics. But much of todays apologetics (engagement with the questions that people are asking about Christianity) come from suburban churches and academic studies. Urban believersthose who live and minister in Americas inner citiesoften face unique issues, not often addressed by the larger Christian community. These questions arent neat or easy to answer but need to be addressed by applying biblical truth in the culture and challenges of urban life. In Urban Apologetics, Christopher seeks to connect the riches of the Christian apologetic tradition with the issues facing citiessuch as poverty, violence, and broken families.
