If you're looking for a good book on apologetics to study with a group, William Lane Craig's new book On Guard: Defending Your Faith with Reason and Precision is a great one. It covers the basics, but in depth. It begins with a biblical case for doing apologetics, then covers several of the most common and significant arguments for Christianity and objections to Christianity. The book has wide margins for note taking, definitions of what might be new terms to readers, and questions to stimulate thought and discussion.
After reading and engaging this book in a study group, you can't help but have your own faith built up by confidence in the evidence and be much more comfortable engaging non-Christians in persuasive discussions about Christianity because you'll have some answers to the questions and objections.
I concur. This is a great book for a study group. There should be a study guide coming out for it as well.
