    Excellent look at what apologetics should be from scripture. Please do listen to these lectures.

    Here's a quote (from part 4):

    "Samuel Johnson used to say, 'Questioning is not a mode of conversation among gentlemen.' But clearly God is not a gentleman in that sense and nor must we be. And we should be discomfiting presences in society. When people want to settle down on their shallow levels of acceptance and so on, we should be pressing them; pushing them; discomfiting them; challenging them by questions which really focus and bore in on the things that will finally show up their weak links."
