About this audiobook
Read by the author.
How to engage in productive conversations with those who challenge your Christian convictions.
Gregory Koukl's best-selling book of practical apologetics, Tactics, wrote the game plan for discussing your Christian convictions with skeptics. In this follow-up, Koukl—a leader of clear-thinking Christianity—reveals the fundamental flaws in common, current challenges to Christian beliefs and values and provides step-by-step strategies to question and reveal those shortcomings.
Street Smarts offers model questions and sample dialogues to help guide believers in persuasive conversations about hot-button issues like:
- Relativism
- The trustworthiness of Scripture
- The claims of the Gospel
- Abortion
- Marriage, sex, and gender
This book will teach you how to tackle those discussions that believers often avoid because they feel out of their element, vulnerable, or exposed. Lucid, well-organized, and easy-to-follow, Street Smarts provides a specific set of questions—the same questions Koukl uses in his own encounters—that are embedded in sample mini-dialogues that you can use to have fruitful debates with non-believers.
