McGrath Chapter 1 Within the first chapter of McGrath's book he lays out his understanding of Apologetics as the ability to relate the Christian faith to contemporary culture today. As I began reading this book we began a study on 1 Peter. It was really smooth sailing until we came to 1 Peter 3:15 but in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect, (ESV).

Thoughts on Chapter One Within reading chapter one, it is very intriguing reading about all the specific assets that came about within Europeans discovering “the new world” (America). Although, many of the topics were interesting, the one topic that stuck out to me the most would be the way the word “freedom” had a different meaning and definition within each culture. The Europeans and Indians had diverse meanings of what it meant to live within freedom.

In Chapter 11 of Bonvillain’s book she talks about how Spanish is the most non-English language spoken in the U.S as well as the difficulties these people encounter in learning English (p.298-300).

We can refer this back to Bonvillain’s claim, “Women are more likely than men to retain Spanish because of their relatively narrower social networks”(p.300). It was evident that they weren’t exposed as much as the men to American society. Although both men and women had an accent, the women’s were always stronger and they had a harder time pronouncing the vowel sounds correctly.
