Classical, evidential, and cumulative case apologetics are all valid; tailor them to the individual

How You Can Know and Show Christianity Is True (Understanding Apologetic Methodology) 00:24:54 – 00:25:54

Practical synthesis of different apologetic frameworks under the knowing/showing distinction

Classical apologetics uses a two-step method (arguments for God, then arguments for resurrection). Evidential apologetics uses a one-step method (resurrection evidence alone establishes Christianity). Cumulative case adds prophecy, unity of Scripture, etc. Winger says all are fine — the best approach meets the person where they are, as seen throughout Scripture.
