When it comes to 21st century apologetics I think Greg Koukl is one of the most unsung heroes of the time.
What frustrates me about Norman Geisler, Dinesh D'Shouza, and William Lane Craig and etc.. is their seemingly total and unwavering commitment to Aristotelian and evidentialist arguing. Greg Koukl is definately an evidentualist and keen logician but he also seems to give a great deal of value to presupusionalist and Calvinstic thought.
When there comes a man or woman who can put forth Greg Bauhnsen's logic, Micheal Horton's theology, William Lane Craig's philosophy, Dinesh DiSouza's debating skill, Norman Geisler's logic, and Francis Scheafer's loveability, then we are going to have one awesome defender of Christianity.
Greg Koukl is very close to this…I hope more apologists follow in his footsteps.
