It can happen at a barbeque. It can happen on a beach. It can happen to anyone, anywhere. It's that moment when a friend, relative or colleague makes a comment about your Christian faith and you suddenly realize you haven't the faintest idea what to say in response. Your mind is a blank. You're frozen to the spot. Worse still, what you say is not very helpful at all.

In Defending the Gospel, ABC Broadcaster and Christian evangelist Kel Richards shares how, over the years, he has improved on his ability to answer questions that non-church friends have asked about what Christians believe. With warmth, humour and clarity, he demonstrates how to anticipate gospel-related questions, how to construct the framework behind your response and how to get a conversation going.

The book is also the latest in our ‘Guidebooks for Life’ series. Like other titles in the series, it covers an important issue of the Christian life in an accessible and straightforward way. Written for every Christian, Defending the Gospel will better prepare you to give clear and helpful answers whenever people challenge your faith.
