Abstract"Christianity will always be attacked," says Ebenezer Afolabi. It is therefore the duty of every believer to take up the task of defending what they believe. This book is divided into two interesting sections where you can learn how to be empowered to defend your faith. In the first section, the author discloses the conflicting and erroneous presuppositions of the major Christian groups in the world, their strengths and weaknesses, and how to deal with them. In the second section you will also learn more about Jesus Christ, His historicity, His deity and humanity, and what other religions and historical documents say about Him. Furthermore, the author reveals the methods used by skeptics to attack the Christian faith, and also suggest eight practical tools Christians can use to expose and refute all erroneous claims. This is a book you cannot afford to miss. Please consider posting a review after reading this book. This will be greatly appreciated.
Afolabi, Ebenezer. Doing Apologetics with an African Mindset: Equipping Africans to Defend the Christian Faith. 2nd ed. AfriCore Apologetics Publications, 2022.
AbstractIn such a time as this when many churches in Africa are drifting away from biblical Christianity and adopting doctrines and practices totally foreign to the Christianity practiced by the apostles and the church fathers, it is therefore imperative to urgently engage in apologetics and polemics, so that the church in Africa can preserve and transmit the tradition of truth and biblical Christianity to the coming generations of Christians in Africa. In Doing Apologetics with an African Mindset, readers will learn the following: 1. How to do Apologetics from the African perspective, 2. The presuppositions of the dominant religions in Africa and why Christianity is unique, 3. How to engage the intellectuals and help them remove their mental barriers to the Christian faith, 4. The uniqueness of Christianity, Jesus, the Bible and the hope Christianity offer to Africans, 5. The Jesus Africans would accept and the images of Christ in Africa. This book is a valuable resource material to help missionaries, church leaders, Pastors, teachers, evangelists, seminarians, youth ministers, parents and Christian educators provide logical and biblical explanations for their Christian claims from the African perspective.

Byamukama, Joseph, and Jude 3 Project. Are African Traditional Religions Demonic? Presentation video, 50:18. Posted on 1 July, 2025.
AbstractIn this eye-opening episode, Lisa Fields sits down with Dr. Joseph Byamukama, a New Testament scholar from Uganda, to explore the deep roots of African spirituality, its misconceptions in the West, and its complex relationship with Christianity. They unpack key themes from Dr. Byamukama's powerful chapter in Apologetics in Africa, including African understandings of a supreme creator, the role of ancestors, polygamy, witchcraft, and the theological bridge Christianity can offer through the resurrection. This is a must-watch for anyone interested in contextual theology, African traditions, or the resurgence of African spiritual practices in the diaspora.

AbstractIn an age of religious tolerance and political correctness, Christians are pressured to apologise for what they believe in. Talk of God, faith, repentance, holiness, salvation and eternity in an age of many choices, is cushioned in politeness, hushed tones, diluted convictions and platitudinous confessions. Winsomeness has its place, but half-hearted witness is ineffective for our time. Social media timelines are filled with videos and images that are a reflection of how much we have elevated the self, to the point of obscuring any confrontation of ideas, except those ideas that are non-Christian. On the other hand, African Christianity is...

Reuben Kigame. “Apologetics.” Accessed July 1, 2025.
AbstractCults are a worldwide phenomenon and Africa has certainly not been spared. They are not a problem 'out there,' but one that lurks at every church door.
AbstractThe mission of the Africa Centre for Apologetics Research is rooted in Jesus’ “Great Commission” (Mt. 28:18–20), in which He commands us to disciple the nations. First, we are tasked with equipping God’s people for discernment—helping them distinguish scripturally between truth and error, good and evil, darkness and light. Spiritual counterfeits thrive in the absence of “the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to discern good and evil” (Heb. 5:14). Second, we seek to train believers for the defence of the faith (Jude 3–4). This command requires us to “earnestly contend” for that faith in the face of opposition—simply and reasonably, with sincerity and zeal, humbly speaking the truth that God has revealed. Third, we seek to mobilize Christians for the neglected but essential task of cult evangelism. This means compassionately helping those entrapped in cultic groups to know Jesus Christ as the true and living God and grasp the hope that only He can offer.
