There are a zillion ways to waste time online.

(Everyone knows how to do that.)

But if you want to save time and accomplish 10x more, especially as youre studying apologetics, here are 2 subjects that you absolutely do not have to study:

Avoid researching the history of apologetics.

Too often, beginning apologetics students, including myself, feel like they have to learn every. single. thing. about the origins of apologetics. They overwhelm themselves with history. Only to end up flustered with all the history and facts.

But instead, they should jump right into apologetic arguments.

Trust me, no one will ever ask you where apologetics came from.

Push off researching Evangelical apologetics systems.

Especially if you’re using an allinone book like William Lane Craig’s Reasonable Faith.
