Non-Rational Issues

     There is a tendency to think that all or nearly all objections to the gospel can be settled by clarifying the issues of the gospel, rational dialogue and if necessary providing solid apologetic answers.  However, experienced communicators realize that this is often not the case.  

     The resources in this section are designed to help you better handle the non-rational (and more frequent) objections to the gospel.
