I taught the senior theology course at a Catholic high school for seven years. The course name was “Apologetics.” This term has its roots in the Greek word apologia, which is used in the New Testament when the apostles were defending their faith (see Acts 22:1).

The field of apologetics is concerned with providing evidence for why one believes in their faith. It attempts to show that there are no claims of faith that contradict reason.

The intention of the course was to equip students going off to college with rational evidence for their faith to fortify it for college and give them the tools to defend their faith to those who don’t believe.

The assumption of the Religion Department was that their faith will, undoubtedly, be tested in college.
