Francis Schaeffer, the Presbyterian philosopher and theologian of L’Abri fame, is widely known for his winsome and compassionate approach to apologetics. He repeatedly insisted that he had “no set method,” and that “each person must be approached as an individual.” While this is true on the level of pastoral care and relational contact, it would…
Fragmented Faiths: How Both Islam and Judaism Lack a Complete, Coherent Storyline
In a world increasingly torn between conflicting ideologies and religious claims, one question stands out as paramount: which worldview truly explains reality? Not merely in isolated doctrines or moral teachings, but in the grand scope of history—origin, meaning, morality, and destiny.

Book Review: No God but One: Allah or Jesus? by Nabeel Qureshi
What if everything you believe were false—would you want to know? That question haunted Nabeel Qureshi for years.

Media Deception – The “Clock Boy” and Islamophobia
In September 2015, a high school freshman in Irving, Texas named Ahmed Mohamed brought a strange-looking electronic device to school. He claimed it was a homemade clock.

Media Deception – The “Muslim Ban” Lie
When President Donald J. Trump signed his first executive order concerning immigration and national security in January 2017, a firestorm erupted.

Anti-Semitism – The War Against the Jews
The story of the Jewish people begins not in Europe or Russia, but in the dusty hills of Canaan—today’s Israel and Palestinian territories—where a man named Abram was called by the Lord to leave Ur and follow Him to a promised land.
