Cycle 2 Apologetics Form 4+

Students in our Form 4 classes at STAR read all of the following books, and so they receive a reading plan with each resource below listed on it. You may choose to have your student read all of the following books, or you may choose individual books from this list.

There are currently only two reading plans for Form 4 Apologetics, so the reading plans for Cycles 1 and 3 are the same, and so are the plans for Cycles 2 and 4, with one exception: the topics in Fearless Apologetics. The apologetics reading schedules really take every Form through the same apologetics question at the same time, but using books at their own level. Fearless Apologetics is the core text that Form 4 and 5 students will use every year to get through these topics. 

Students will come across a topic more than once over their education, but they will use different resources, and the hope is that their own brain would begin to make some beautiful connections.

Fearless Apologetics by Chap Bettis

This is a great resource for the whole family and is a required resource for Form 4 and 5 students at STAR and will be used each year for these Forms. 

The book contains apologetics topics and questions, and then resources and Scripture references for each question. There is a different set of questions from this book for every cycle.

This reading schedule is for the 2022 edition and will be updated if a new version is printed.
