Martin Cothran, an experienced debater in print and on radio and television, discusses the important art of persuasion and how to teach it to students. Early Christian thinkers such as St. Augustine took the system of rhetoric originally developed by Aristotle, Quintilian, and Cicero and used it in the defense of the Christian world view. Cothran explains what these tools were and how they can be taught in your private school or homeschool.
