Josh Brahm will be speaking on the topic of relational apologetics at Belmont Abbey College, Abbot Walter Coggin Student Center, on October 22nd.

When we at ERI use the phrase “relational apologetics,” we mean trying to change a person’s mind about a core belief in the context of genuine friendship. Most people will not change their minds about a serious subject after one conversation, so an ongoing dialogue with a friend can be really helpful.

It’s easy to just denounce the other side as evil. It’s hard to listen to them. It’s hard to try to understand them. It’s risky to treat the other person like a decent human being because then you might have to take them seriously.”
