Now, here's your host, Jay Warner Wallace.

Thanks for joining me today at Cold Case Christianity.

I'm Jay Warner Wallace.

I'm actually joined by my cat Simba who was in the picture today as well because he was

beating the door next to me here and insisting upon being in the room while I taped.

So here he is in my study. Okay, that being said, let's talk about our

continuing short series we've been doing, we'll probably make it intermittent, but the idea here is to be able to

offer quick responses to key questions that might be

offered or asked actually of you during the holidays for example or any other

family gathering or any other time when you're sitting around with friends

either in the workplace

someone's going to ask you a question at some point and I would actually ask you if

no one's asking you questions about what you believe as a Christian why is that

happen why is that the case I know there's at some point I have to ask myself if I'm never being asked about my beliefs

I'm gonna have to wonder is it because I've never talking about them or never living in a way or behaving in a way that would cause anyone to ask a question, regardless of that.

At some point I would hope, someone's going to ask you a question about what you believe, when that happens I want us to be ready.

And we have to be ready in a rhetorically powerful fashion.
