No Apology

I have been a Catholic apologist for more than twenty-five years. In these pages I share some of my own experiences and some stories from times past. I write about how to do apologetics and how not to. I defend the very idea of apologetics against a theologian who thinks apologetics is passé. I look at how the faith is promoted through beauty and through suffering. I take you from my own backyard to such distant times and places as fifth-century Jerusalem and sixteenth-century Japan.
