Summary
Throughout history there have been great and articulate defenders of the faith, from Augustine and Aquinas to Jonathan Edwards, G. K. Chesterton, Francis Schaeffer, and C. S. Lewis. But with new challenges comes the need for a fresh apologetic that specifically addresses the arguments levied against faith in our time of scientific atheism and skepticism.
In the spirit of C. S. Lewis' Mere Christianity, Alister McGrath's Mere Apologetics seeks to equip listeners to engage gracefully and intelligently with the challenges facing the faith today while drawing appropriately on the wisdom of the past. Rather than supplying the fine detail of every apologetic issue in order to win arguments, Mere Apologetics teaches a method that appeals not only to the mind but also to the heart and the imagination. This highly accessible book is perfect for pastors, teachers, students, and lay people who want to speak clearly and lovingly to the issues that confront people of faith today.

Mere Apologetics
Great book that helps to explore apologetic responses to some of the 'big questions' about God and the Christian faith. Easy to listen to and would recommend.

Agreeable introduction to Apologetics - Relevant to the 21st Century
This is a very good book - it was helpful and informative. However, I will say that, given his respect and frequent referral to C. S. Lewis, it would have been appreciated (specifically by me), if he had kept the text accessible to all levels of readers in the same way that Mr Lewis did in his Mere Christianity. Sometimes the text was a bit “high brow”, using theological terms and phrases that many lay people (like myself) are not - yet - familiar with.

Christian Apologetics Easily Understood
This is an excellent introduction to an important tradition, by one of the world's premier Christian apologists.
Dr McGrath follows in the footsteps of his countryman, C.S. Lewis in bringing the beauty of the Christian faith to a popular audience.
Like other great Christian scientists and writers such as Dr John Lennox and Dr Stephen C. Meyer, McGrath does the hard work in his writing, so we don't have to in our reading. As a teacher of younger students, I can most appreciate this and the challenge it must be to distil such complex themes into a fine wine for us to enjoy. This is a major reason why I rate those gents so highly.
Alister deftly moves between Theology, philosophy, psychology, and other areas to make a multifaceted case for Christian truth and its edifying character.
"The Glory of God is a human being fully alive..."
