An apologist is a person who defends Christianity through argument and discussion.
The apologists of the first few centuries after Jesus played a very significant role in defending the faith against unorthodox teachings. Some of the more famous ones include Irenaeus who defended against Gnosticism (an exclusive cult where matter was taught to be evil) and Athanasiadus who wrote strongly against Arianism (the teaching that Jesus was a man only, and not God).
More recent apologists include thinkers like C.S. Lewis who have defended Christianity in books such as Mere Christianity.
