This article sets out the case for a narrative apologetics, understood not simply as an approach to theology which opportunistically uses stories, but one which is grounded in the fundamentally narrative nature of the Christian faith. The essay draws especially on C. S. Lewis in both making the case for the use of narratives in Christian apologetics, and also considering some ways in which a narrative apologetics might be developed further. In particular, it highlights the importance of showing that a Christian narrative has an imaginative and rational appeal that exceeds that of its secular alternatives.
