An apology, as defined by dictionary.com, is a reasoned \u201cdefense, excuse, or justification in speech or writing, as for a cause or doctrine\u201d. So this blog is my reasoned defense, coming from humble beginnings because I am always learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Humble Apology <\/em>was born out of a desire to learn how to reasonably defend my Christian faith. I didn’t like that when approached by nonbelievers or skeptics with certain questions, I would clam up. My brain would freeze and I’d completely forget words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In those real, honest, and raw moments, I realized that I didn\u2019t know as much about my faith as I thought I did. I knew in my heart what I felt to be true, but could I reasonably defend that to someone trying to understand? Could I truly explain why I believed what I believed? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, as a mom of a toddler, I realize even more just how important it is to know how to reasonably defend the Christian faith. Because one day my toddler will come face-to-face with the world. And he might come home one day with some tough questions about his faith. And I want to do all I can to be ready to answer those questions or at least turn to resources that can.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
