Dr. Rod Rosenbladt and Mr. Craig Parton, Esq. do some of their finest work in this series of lectures introducing Christian apologetics. Recorded on Reformation Day (Friday, Oct. 30 – Sat., Oct. 31) in Tomball, Texas, this series and the accompanying bibliography can help you understand Christian apologetics quickly and easily. Hear how strong the evidence is for the Christian faith. Mr. Parton describes how he came to the faith, through an evangelist who knocked on his dorm room door.

Once you’ve heard the first lecture from both Dr. Rosenbladt and Mr. Parton, made available for free here, make sure you stop by our page dedicated to the entire lecture series in our store – over six hours in all, including Questions and Answers at the end.

Following the audio links below, you can find the bibliographic information for all the titles mentioned in the entire presentation, plus any files from the presenters, some of which were made available as print outs to the attendees of the event.

Enjoy!

Mr. Parton covers historical legal apologetics and Islam, Cults and the New Age. Dr. Rosenbladt covers subjects like what questions non-Christians ask and a Lutheran defense of the Gospel. The free samples above are just a taste and you don’t want to miss the rest.
