Question One
“Why apologetics matters to women now more than at any other time” is our topic today. Let’s start with what apologetics is and what it’s not.
Question Two
What are some of the issues women face today that apologetics prepares us for?
Question Three
With J Warner Wallace, Frank Turek and other well known men in apologetics, why are women needed in this area and why do you think women haven’t jumped in as much until now? (We do have Alisa Childers, Natasha Crain and Mama Bear Apologetics, but they are just becoming more known).
Question Four
What about people who say women shouldn’t be heard in the church and that means they shouldn’t be in apologetics?
Question Five
Most don’t know what apologetics is. Moreover, I don’t know if it’s because I work with apologists at OCC and CE, or if it’s because I’m in the church, but I do see it growing and I see women in apologetics rising up. What do you suggest for those who desire to learn more?
Question Six
Tell us about the amazing apologetics conference WIA is hosting in Florida
