The name of my blog “Apologian” is a Greek word that means “from the word” or “speak the word”. It is a compound word of “apo” which means “from” and “logia” which means “word”. We get our english word “apologetics” from “apologia”. Apologetics is the defending of a premise through the logical use of information. Peter said in his First Epistle, “…sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense (apologia) to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear”.-(1 Peter 3:15) I believe the best commentary on the Bible is the Bible itself. If we are going to state a reason for the hope that we have in calling Jesus Lord then we need to give a defense from the Word of God or Apologia. So in choosing Apologian as the name of my blog it reminds me that we are on a sacred journey together growing in the grace and knowledge of the Lord as we study His Word.

This video about the four blood moons will at the very least make you think about the times we are living.
