A Look at Acts 17: Can Apologists Follow Paul’s Example in Today’s Culture

June 12, 2014 by Eric Chabot

When it comes to apologetics, Acts 17 has always been one of my favorite chapters of the Bible. I have used it in the attempt to motivate others to learn about apologetics which is the rational defense of the Christian faith. The question at hand is whether the culture is the same today as it was in Paul’s day. Also, does Paul’s approach work for Christians today? First, a … [Read more...]

Strange Bedfellow

August 23, 2013 by Jim Shultz

In a recent New York Time article, Thomas Nagel offers a brief but robust explanation why a purely physical explanation of the universe will not work.  This may not seem, at first glance, to be a big issue.  However, if it is true that the universe is only physical, then there can be no human mind/soul and certainly no god.  Here is the kicker: Dr. Nagel is an atheist.  And, he … [Read more...]

Omnipotent God and The Paradox of the Stone

May 21, 2013 by Prayson Daniel

The concept of an omnipotent being, namely a being with maximal perfection with respect to power, is sometimes believed to involve a contradiction. The most popular reductio ad absurdum case against the existence of omnipotent being is known as “the paradox of the stone.” The paradox unfolds as follows: 1. If God exists, then He is omnipotent 2. If God is omnipotent then God … [Read more...]

Step One of Using Pop Culture as a Community Apologist: The "Aha!" Moment

March 24, 2013 by Leslie Keeney

I am convinced that one of the easiest things to do as a Community Apologist is to use pop culture to demonstrate that everyone, everywhere (with the exception of the odd sociopath) has a moral intuition. And once people agree that this intuition exists, the conversation can then turn to why it exists and where it comes from. One of the commenters on my last post asked if I … [Read more...]

What Does Philosophy Have to do with Apologetics?

February 24, 2013 by Leslie Keeney

I’m in the process of getting a Master’s in Philosophy. Right now, I’m taking a class on thesis writing and we’re working through the process of choosing a topic. Since I attend a Christian University, most, if not all, of the students are Christian. The thesis, however, as my professor said, has to be “purely philosophical.” In this case, “purely philosophical” means that it … [Read more...]

Unity Statement

In essentials unity, in nonessentials liberty, in all things charity. The Christian Apologetics Alliance (CAA) is united in our Statement of Faith. The CAA does not, as an organization, have positions on many of the doctrinal or theological debates that take place within the church. Our primary concern is to promote the gracious, rational defense of the central claims of Christianity and the critique of opposing systems of thought. The CAA joyfully welcomes Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and diverse Protestant believers, and we are committed to treating all these traditions with respect in our community.
