Jesus as Apologist

Jesus was a preacher, healer...and an apologist! Based on an article written by the speaker, this session will explore the role of apologetics in Jesus’ ministry by examining John 5, a passage which provides an excellent example of how Jesus related to the questions and objections of his contemporaries. It will conclude with a discussion of how Jesus’ model of apologetic engagement can and should mould and shape the modern apologetic task. Presented by Stefan Gustavsson at the 2019 European Leadership Forum.
