Some positive apologetic elements include Augustine's presentation of the implied ontological argument, the cosmological argument, the teleological argument, the argument from the experience of beauty, the demonstration of the coherence of the Christian conception of God (including his explorations with time and creation).

His knowledge and skill have placed him on platforms on every continent, engaging the most notable skeptics in dialogue and debate., On Guard is an excellent summation of how the Christian faith makes sense of the real world in which we all live. Read it to deepen your own faith and to embolden your confidence in sharing that faith with others., William Lane Craig is arguably one of the finest Christian philosophers of our time. On Guard is Craig's introduction to the wealth of information, logic, and evidence that powerfully point to the truth of our Christian beliefs. He is one of a kind and I thank God for his life and work., There is probably no greater defender of the Christian faith alive today than William Lane Craig. I do not know of a single thinker who has done more to raise the bar of Christian scholarship in our generation than Craig. I know him well and can say that he lives a life of integrity and lives out what he believes. Besides that, he is a winsome ambassador for Christ, an exceptional debater, and a man with the heart of an evangelist. He is simply the finest Christian apologist of the last half century, and his academic work justifies ranking him among the top 1 percent of practicing philosophers in the Western world.
It is hard to overstate the impact that William Lane Craig has had for the cause of Christ.
