Here's the publisher's blurb and list of contributors:
The History of Apologetics follows the great apologists in the history of the church to understand how they approached the task of apologetics in their own cultural and theological context. Each chapter looks at the life of a well-known apologist from history, unpacks their methodology, and details how they approached the task of defending the faith.
By better understanding how apologetics has been done, readers will be better able to grasp the contextualized nature of apologetics and apply those insights to today's context. The History of Apologetics covers forty-four apologists including:
Part One: Patristic Apologists
Part Two: Medieval Apologists
Part Three: Early Modern Apologists
Part Four: 19th C. Apologists
Part Five: 20th C. American Apologists
Part Six: 20th C. European Apologists
Part Seven: Contemporary Apologists

Important Update: In light of Governor Newsom's Covid-19 Guidance for Places of Worship (released Monday, May 25), C-Ref staff, consistory, and council are working hard on formulating a plan of compliance so we can return to public worship. Look for details in the days ahead.
In the meantime, we plan to continue our video series on Romans. On Sunday, May 31, we will take-up Romans 7:1-6, and Paul's discussion of "new life in the Spirit."
