According to my research, the English term "apology" is derived from a Greek phrase that literally means "to give a defense." Christian apologetics is a means of defending the Christian faith. . Several people question the existence of God and/or criticize believing in the God of the Bible. A lot of critics have attacked the Bible's inspiration and inerrancy. Many false teachers spread incorrect teachings and deny the fundamental doctrines of the Christian faith. Christian apologetics' purpose is to resist these movements while promoting the Christian God and truth.

The 'spirit' of the present age could be summed up as one of 'tolerance at the expense of truth' - our prayer is that we shall be kept from that and, because "we were allowed of God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, which trieth our hearts" (1Thess. 2:4).

"The work that we do in apologetics may not be understood in all of the details by all the Christians who hear it. But if we can answer these questions and show the credibility of Christianity, the folks in the church will not be devastated by the voices of skepticism that surround them."

“The Most Valuable Aim in Apologetics”
Tabletalk magazine
"A person’s worldview represents his most fundamental beliefs and assumptions about the universe he inhabits. It reflects how he would answer all the ‘big questions’ of human existence: fundamental questions about who and what we are, where we came from, why we’re here, where (if anywhere) we’re headed, the meaning and purpose of life, the nature of the afterlife, and what counts as a good life here and now. Few people think through these issues in any depth, and fewer still have firm answers to such questions, but a person’s worldview will at least incline him toward certain kinds of answers and away from others."
James N. Anderson

"The Greek word apologia means literally ‘to speak to.’ Over time, it came to mean ‘to make a defense.’ When Athens accused Socrates of being harmful to society, Socrates had to offer his defense. He titled it Apologia. He stood before the ‘men of Athens,’ offering his reasoned defense. The New Testament uses the word seventeen times. Many instances concern court cases, such as the time Paul appeared before the Jewish Council in Acts 22 and before Festus in Acts 25. Paul also speaks of his imprisonment in Rome as an apologia of the gospel (Phil. 1:7, 16)."
