| dc.description.abstract | There has been a resurgence of the study of apologetics in Lutheran circles recently, in the
Missouri Synod as well as the Wisconsin Synod. As our society continues to become more and
more “post-Christian,” Christians and members in the WELS are asking for more information
about how to defend their faith. This post-Christian society is one that our students are entering
after high school, but in some cases even earlier. Some of our WELS elementary students go on
to a public high school and do not receive additional biblical education. Neither do they receive
much instruction on how to defend their faith against the questions that will be placed before
them. It is primarily with these students in mind that this thesis will explore how to begin
introducing apologetics in middle school. | en_US |
