By: Gregory Koukl

Narrated by: Gregory Koukl, Tom Parks

Read by the author.

How to engage in productive conversations with those who challenge your Christian convictions.

Gregory Koukl's best-selling book of practical apologetics, Tactics, wrote the game plan for discussing your Christian convictions with skeptics. In this follow-up, Koukl—a leader of clear-thinking Christianity—reveals the fundamental flaws in common, current challenges to Christian beliefs and values and provides step-by-step strategies to question and reveal those shortcomings.

Street Smarts offers model questions and sample dialogues to help guide believers in persuasive conversations about hot-button issues like:

• Relativism
• The trustworthiness of Scripture
• The claims of the Gospel
• Abortion
• Marriage, sex, and gender

This book will teach you how to tackle those discussions that believers often avoid because they feel out of their element, vulnerable, or exposed. Lucid, well-organized, and easy-to-follow, Street Smarts provides a specific set of questions—the same questions Koukl uses in his own encounters—that are embedded in sample mini-dialogues that you can use to have fruitful debates with non-believers.

Excellent practical advice for Christians

Using an easy-to-understand style, Greg provides clear practical guidance on how to share your faith with unbelievers and address their challenges in a low-stress congenial manner. A great follow-on to his book "Tactics" but can be read and understood completely independent of his other works. A must-read for anyone who wants to engage people in discussions about their faith, but is fearful or unsure how to do so.

Technique for engaging non believers

Great way to lead and discuss Jesus in view of worldly beliefs. Courage to step out of your comfort zone

Amazing Book!!

Greg is a terrific communicator both verbally and in writing. This has some great insight into truth and Christianity. Whether you are a skeptic or believer you will be challenged.

Excellent Follow Up to “Tactics”

This book is an excellent follow up to Koukl’s previous book on the topic “Tactics.” I highly recommend reading it first but it’s not required. This book does a great job of showing the various topics that you might encounter and presenting different conversations that you might have and intelligent responses. It’s a great book to have in your arsenal if you’re studying apologetics!

Incredible advice delivered brilliantly.

Greg’s book is an anchor in the sea of our current culture. A book worth listening to more than once.
