About Arend Botha
The person, purpose and convictions behind arend.co.za.
Writer, researcher and creator
I created arend.co.za as a place for thoughtful Christian inquiry — somewhere Scripture, theology, history and evidence can be examined without shallow slogans or manufactured certainty.
The work brings together articles, video teachings, book reviews, biblical-language studies and creative projects. The goal is simple: pursue truth carefully, distinguish conviction from assumption and help readers build a faith that can withstand scrutiny.
What shapes the work
Six commitments guide what I publish here — from biblical interpretation and apologetics to discernment, language study and creative expression.
- Scripture before slogans
- Theology with history
- Honest apologetics
- Responsible discernment
- Biblical languages
- Creative expression
Claims should be examined honestly. Sources, evidence and fair argument matter more than easy slogans.

Questions, corrections and thoughtful disagreement are welcome. Good theology grows through careful conversation.
