Apologist comes from the latin Apologia, which means a a formal defense of an idea or belief or opinion.

The earliest evangelists, Christ's disciples, were the first Christian apologists, providing arguments and evidence for their beliefs.

Dr. Craig has built a Christian ministry called Reasonable Faith based on answering core questions about the nature and existence of God, and evidential arguments for the same, based on philosophical and logical premises.
