Narrative Apologetics: Sharing the Relevance, Joy, and Wonder of the Christian Faith

“Many of us have been struggling to figure out how all the talk in recent theology about 'narrative' and 'imagination' can inform our quest for a new approach in apologetics. In this fine book Alister McGrath puts it all together for us--including the focus on practical applications. This is a must-read for all who want to show others how the gospel of Jesus Christ addresses the deepest hopes and fears of the human condition.”

“Professor McGrath's life and work have been a gift to those who celebrate the life of the mind. Here he invites us further still, reminding us that Christianity is not simply something external to be observed and confirmed but an internal reality to be lived. Narrative Apologetics is a compelling call to resist a reductionist rationality and to enter into the 'imaginative embrace' of the Christian faith. Read this book to be envisioned again about the expansiveness of the Christian story and to be given practical insight into how we might 'out-narrate' the stories of our cultures with the better story of Christ.”
