  • "In Defence of Christianity is a short book of Christian apologetics. Acknowledging that reason is not the basis of faith, Brian Hebblethwaite sets out some of the main reasons that can be advanced in support of the Christian faith. He defends the view that belief in God makes most sense of a world that has come up with moral and creative persons and communities, including all that they have produced in the way of culture, mysticism, and sainthood. He also argues that the history of religions, and in particular the history of Israel and the story of Christ and his Church, offers the best diagnosis and solution of the problems that afflict humanity and the most hopeful picture of the ultimate future of creation."
  • "This short book of apologetics originated in the two Gifford lectures which I contributed to a joint series in Glasgow in September 2001 and the four Hensley Hanson lectures which I delivered in Oxford in May 2002. Much rewriting and reordering has taken place"--Preface."
