A unique and timely guide for relating the gospel to the complex
and distinct issues of inner city America
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 today's apologetics (engagement with the questions that
people are asking about Christianity) come from suburban churches
and academic studies. Urban believers--those who live and minister
in America's inner cities--often face unique issues, not often
addressed by the larger Christian community. These questions aren't
neat or easy to answer but need to be addressed by applying
biblical truth in the culture and challenges of urban life.
Author Chris Brooks has ministered for years in the urban
environment as well as received extensive theological training. In
Urban Apologetics, he seeks to connect the riches of the Christian
apologetic tradition with the issues facing cities--such as
poverty, violence, and broken families. He brings an urban rhythm
and sensitivity to the task of demonstrating the relevance of faith
and the healing truth that Christ provides.
