Publisher's summary

We know that Urban isn't just a place but a culture now. Followers of Jesus face many challenges to their faith, among them the rising influence of contemporary cults, alternative theologies, and ethical issues that challenge traditionally held beliefs and practices. Urban Apologetics: Cults and Cultural Ideologies, is a follow-up to the bestselling Urban Apologetics, and it provides a guide to addressing these challenges with grace and wisdom. In addition, throughout the book are short essays by leaders in the church sharing their convictions on successful ministry and reflection on today’s challenges in light of the past.

This all-new volume addresses several of today's most-talked-about issues, including:

  • Jehovah Witnesses
  • The Prosperity Gospel
  • Black Liberation theology
  • LGBTQ+ Issues
  • Critical Race Theory (CRT)
  • White Nationalism
  • Faith Deconstruction

Edited by Dr. Eric Mason and featuring a top-notch lineup of contributors such as Anthony Bradley, Brandon Washington, and Thabiti Anyabwile, Urban Apologetics: Cults and Cultural Ideologies equips pastors, churches, and everyday believers to engage the most common ethical, biblical, and theological challenges faced by Christians and the church today.

A rich scholarly and theological book

This excellent book covers many apologetic issues that are of interest in any environment, not just an inner city or within the urban context. Dr. Eric Mason and his team of contributors did not hold back. This book benefits Christians familiar with traditional apologetics but looking for an introduction to addressing our day's cultural/social issues. Every Pastor and believer must get this book and read it carefully, whether you currently live, work, or serve in an urban context. It should also be required reading for seminaries across our nation. The groups and issues discussed by Dr. Mason and his team are now firmly a part of the American landscape, and we are responsible to “make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you…” (1 Peter 3:15). This book is an invaluable help.

Great Book

Full of good information presented in an honest but loving way. We do need to examine things for ourselves instead of following family, a political party-line, or even a particular church. The truth can withstand scrutiny and examination. There's some meat in here that might need to be blended and chewed up for the babes.

Excellence!

This book was done in excellence. It is very informative and biblically accurate. It is much needed in our culture today which is plagued by relativism. This book is a guiding light back to a true and authentic relationship with Jesus! Well done all contributors. Thank you for your labors for the kingdom. Glory to God!!

Excellent work!

For this to be a scholarly work, the pace at which it was presented didn’t feel slow or stagnant. I thoroughly enjoyed the content and will revisit this from time to time.

Amazing!

This book was awesome. It shed light on how so many people have been led astray by cults and false teaching. It definitely motivated me to go out and share the true gospel to all the lost and deceived.

Cults and Culture Ideologies

Thoroughly enjoyed the explanation about the various cults and how they misinterpret the truth. It’s sad to see so many people being deceived and going to Hell.
