The holidays are almost here. And with it comes the search for the perfect gift for friends and family. I absolutely love the holiday season, and Christmas is my favorite holiday. The holidays bring families together and reminds us to be grateful for what we have and who we have in our lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, holiday shopping can be so stressful. Fun\u2026but stressful. Especially when it comes to those people in your life you just struggle to find the right gift for every year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, I was thinking one day, gift giving is fun and we all love to bring joy to our loved ones this way. But, when we think about the reason we celebrate Christmas, it\u2019s to celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The birth, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ is what we celebrate and give thanks for. Because the work that God did on the cross, we are now covered by the blood of Christ, who intercedes for us, and we will live everlasting lives with God in the next life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The gift of salvation is hands down the best gift ever given. So, there is no gift that can top that gift, period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, the next best thing we can do as Christians is spread the news of that gift to others. In this post, I want to share six unique Christian gift ideas (all centered around Apologetics) that you can get for the loved one in your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apologetics: A Christian Gift of Stronger Faith<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I remember one year, I found out that an older relative of mine was struggling to read the Bible, like physically read it. So, for Christmas, I bought her the books of the Bible on audio. I felt like doing that was more important than buying her a new scarf or giving her a gift card.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I think that, while giving leisurely gifts is fine, wouldn\u2019t it be powerful if Christians started using the power of giving to give gifts that point people to Christ? Or a gift to strengthen someone\u2019s faith?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are tons of really good Christian gift ideas floating around the internet. But what about giving the gift of stronger faith through Apologetics?<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Apologetics is the discipline of defending the Christian faith, to put it simply. You can read more about what apologetics is here. But learning apologetics can help us better argue for the validity of the Bible, defend the reasons we believe, present reasonable evidence, and provide competent answers for our beliefs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, there are a lot of Christians who can\u2019t tell you what or why they believe. And when confronted with real arguments to their faith, because of their weak foundation, they crumble. They fail to give a convincible answer, which not only can harm that individual\u2019s faith, but lead the confronter even further away from the Truth. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I\u2019m speaking from experience, so this isn\u2019t to point fingers. I\u2019ve been in that place where I\u2019ve been confronted with some tough questions, and I simply did not know how to respond. And that\u2019s why I am learning apologetics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every Christian should know why they believe and be able to give a reason for their faith. The Bible tells us this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,<\/em> <\/p>\n~ 1 Peter 3:15<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

So, during this holiday season, why not consider giving the gift of stronger faith and bless others with tools to do the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6 Christian Gift Ideas, Apologetics Style<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Below are 6 Christian Apologetics gift ideas you can give for the holiday season. Give the gift of stronger faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. The Apologetics Study Bible<\/a><\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n

   The Apologetics Study Bible<\/a> is a gem that I stumbled upon when I was first introduced to apologetics. This Bible has amazing articles and commentary from top apologists scattered throughout the book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

   In these special sections, these scholars dive into scripture from a different angle, offering answers and dialogue on some of the tough questions that other Bibles don\u2019t touch on. Some example articles include: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

   • \u201cWhat is Apologetics\u201d by Kenneth D. Boa <\/li>
   • \u201cAre the Days of Genesis to Be Interpreted Literally?\u201d by Ted Cabal<\/li>
   • \u201cEvolution: Fact or Fantasy\u201d by Phillip E. Johnson<\/li>
   • \u201cCan Biblical Chronology Be Trusted\u201d by E. Ray Clendenen<\/li>
   • “Can God’s Actions be Detected Scientifically” by C. John Collins<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n

     And this is only a handful of what is available in this Bible. You can read my review of The Apologetics Bible here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     2. Christian subscription boxes focused on defending faith<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

     There are tons of Christian subscription box options available, which is something I just recently discovered. You can check out my post listing a few of the ones under $20 here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     A subscription box or service could be a great and unique gift to give to someone. You could even sign up for one yourself, and pick items out of the box to give away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

     One box that stood out to me in my search (which I have not tried yet) is the Faith on Fire<\/a><\/strong> subscription box. It\u2019s described as a \u201cA monthly box created to fire up your faith and encourage you to share your testimony with others\u201d. This could be a great gift for someone in need of a little boost to their faith. You can learn more here<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n
