The Apostles' Creed was used in two distinct ways by the early Christian church: first, as a tool to teach new disciples the essentials of the faith, and second, as a defense for the faith from unbelievers and skeptics alike. In the world today, many are engaged in apologetics but with their presuppositions and subjective reasoning, they offer the world nothing different than their own subjective beliefs. Using the Apostles' Creed as a guide enables the Christian to give a hope for the faith within using objective truths based on eyewitness testimony. This book teaches you how to use the Creed to stay on topic and bring out the essentials of the faith in a concise and graceful manner. Dr. Almodovar gives a rubber-hits-the-road approach to apologetics, offering various scenarios to show how Creedal apologetics is accomplished. This simple tool (the Apostles' Creed), once used for defense, is dusted off, polished up, and sharpened so that today's Christians can defend and proclaim the great gospel of Jesus Christ to a world in desperate need of the forgiveness of sins and new life in his name.

Creedal Apologetics: Learning to Use the Apostles' Creed to Defend and Proclaim the Christian Faith
"Creedal Apologetics is a book desperately needed in today's confessional churches, both Lutheran and Reformed. It serves as a path to train and teach our laity in a simple and easy way to both share the gospel and defend the faith and advance the cause of Christ in a world in need of Jesus. It resets our subjective and individualist mindset, which is both corrupting and breaking the modern evangelical church, and gives us a path forward into the twenty-first century." --Aaron Long, pastor at Paul's Chapel, Lexington, North Carolina
