About Why Christianity
Why Christianity is a Perth based Christian apologetics ministry. It is an incorporated association registered with the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission.
The aim of Why Christianity is:
- To model a respectful and informed presence for biblical Christianity in the public arena.
- Through truth and love to show why Christ is worth considering.
- To train Christians to articulate and graciously defend the Christian worldview.
Why Christianity is a free online public library that produces digital media: articles, videos, and audio to help educate individuals and society on why Christianity is worth considering—that it is good, beautiful, and true.
We also aim to support churches and Christian schools in Perth with apologetics resources and training through conducting courses, giving talks, and producing written and video resources. Ultimately, the group aims to glorify God and support the spread of the gospel through apologetics.
Apologetics, which is making a case for the Christian faith, is an expression of loving God with one’s mind. It strengthens the faith of believers and helps remove obstacles non-believers might have to accept Christ. As the Bible says in 1 Peter 3:15, “In your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect” (ESV).
