Abstract

Apologetics is an indispensable tool for discipleship and evangelism and should be included in Bible school and seminary curricula. However, the task of teaching apologetics in a non-Western culture or to students with a non-Western worldview has its difficulties and challenges. From the perspective of teaching at a seminary in Thailand, the author shares some principles for teaching apologetics to non-Western students. Challenges include teaching to the wrong question, considering worldview assumptions, learning from students, and finding resources.
