Patricia Engler serves the Lord Jesus Christ as a Christian apologetics speaker, author, and podcast host for Answers in Genesis. She has a BSc in general science and an MA in bioethics and is pursuing doctoral coursework in applied apologetics. In 2019, she joined AiG–Canada as a speaker, writer, and youth outreach coordinator before transferring to AiG–US in 2022. She also serves as an Answers News panelist and cohosts Zero Compromise, AiG’s podcast for young adults.
After completing 12 years of homeschooling and her undergraduate degree, Patricia backpacked 360 degrees around the world in 180 days documenting how Christian students keep their faith at university. The top takeaways from this research are available in Patricia’s book Prepare to Thrive: A Survival Guide for Christian Students. In 2022, she embarked on a second backpacking journey to research Marxism’s history and consequences in Europe, leading to the book Modern Marxism: A Guide for Christians in a Woke New World. Both backpacking trips formed the basis for teaching series available on Patricia’s blog. She also writes and speaks on bioethics topics to help Christians think biblically about sanctity-of-life issues and emerging technologies.
In her spare time, Patricia can often be found adventuring outdoors, exploring back roads, sketching, reading, or playing the ukulele.
