It tends toward an unbiblical and unchristian form of Christian witness and does not have the ability to attest truthfully to Christ in our postmodern context. In fact, Christians need an entirely new way of conceiving the apologetic task.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis provocative text critiques modern apologetic efforts and offers a concept of faithful Christian witness that is characterized by love and grounded in God''s revelation. Penner seeks to reorient the discussion of Christian belief, change a well-entrenched vocabulary that no longer works, and contextualize the enterprise of apologetics for a postmodern generation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: Against Apologetics\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eAnother Disquieting Suggestion\u003cbr\u003eChanging Paradigms\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e1.
