The Random House Dictionary defines apologetics as: the branch of theology concerned with the defense or proof of Christianity.

Many Christians throughout the centuries, from Thomas Aquinas and Justin Martyr, to C.S. Lewis, Josh McDowell and Lee Strobel, have written numerous works demonstrating time and again how orthodox Christianity makes sense of the world and is based upon historical, scientific, and logical grounds.

While these works are powerful and convincing, there are many people who, for one reason or another, are not interested in reading non-fiction books.

Therefore, we at Apologetics Fiction.com feel called to take the amazing truths and arguments that support the Christian faith and repackage them in action/adventure fictional novels.

Although we know that our stories are limited in their ability to present complete and exhaustive arguments, it is our goal to whet the appetite of the reader.   For example, a young person who is initially disinterested in reading a non-fiction book on the archeological proofs supporting the Bible may change his/her mind after reading a fictional story that brings the topic to life.

Furthermore, well-designed stories have a way of grabbing our imaginations and helping us to remember what we learned.   A good analogy can go far in teaching a specific idea, and a good story can forever ingrain a truth in our minds and spirits.

The ultimate teacher himself, Jesus, used stories and parables to present the truths of the gospel.  We hope to merely emulate his example for His glory and the furtherance of His kingdom.

Soli Deo Gloria
