Overview

In this follow-up to AP120, Dr. Oliphint turns to the applications of covenantal apologetics for today’s world. He begins with the elements of common grace and God’s mercy, describes the covenantal view of sin and human nature, and offers responses to the most common apologetics issue—the problem of evil. Dr. Oliphint provides ample biblical and theological support throughout.

Getting the most out of Mobile Ed

Logos Mobile Education is a highly effective cross-platform learning environment that integrates world class teaching with the powerful study tools and theological libraries available in Logos Bible Software. Every course provides links to additional resources and suggested readings that supplement the lecture material at the end of every transcript segment.

This course was produced with screencast videos. These videos provide tutorials showing you how to use Logos Bible Software in ways that are tied directly into the content of the course.
