Über diesen Titel
In this episode, Brian and Chad talk with Christian apologist and evangelist **Eric Hernandez** about his book *The Lazy Approach to Evangelism: A Simple Guide for Conversing with Non-Believers*. Eric discusses how evangelism and apologetics intersect, why every believer is called to defend the faith, and how to engage with skeptics effectively and biblically.
Key Topics Covered:
* Eric’s philosophy of evangelism and how apologetics fits into it
* The danger of emotion-based evangelism vs. truth-based evangelism
* Understanding “strongholds” (2 Corinthians 10) as false ideas that block people from knowing God
* Identifying and addressing major worldviews: postmodernism, scientism, and naturalism
* Paul’s example of adapting to the audience (1 Corinthians 9:20–23)
* “The Lazy Approach”: asking the right questions instead of having all the right answers
* The importance of theological triage—keeping the main thing the main thing
* Understanding the **burden of proof**, **rebuttals vs. refutations**, and **logical fallacies**
* Using Colossians 4:5–6 as a biblical foundation for gospel conversations
* How Jesus modeled effective apologetics with both compassion and precision
* Encouragement for Christians who feel intimidated by evangelism or apologetics
* Why apologetics isn’t optional—it’s commanded and part of loving God with all your mind
Quotes:
“If you’re not engaging in apologetics, you are in rebellious disobedience to the Word of God.” – Eric Hernandez
“You don’t need to know all the right answers; you need to learn how to ask the right questions.”
“Evangelism isn’t about winning arguments—it’s about tearing down strongholds.”
