5.0 out of 5 stars Makes sense to me, March 25, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Christianity: The Faith that Makes Sense (Mass Market Paperback)

After reading this book, you have a good perspective on absolute truth in the God of the Bible. Not only does this book offer numerous arguements on why the God of the Bible is the truth, it offers logical arguements on why the God of the bible is the truth! I highly recommend this book to anyone who is agnostic or still searching for hard facts in a world full of confusing theologies. This book is also recommended for those who confess their Christian faith but often have troubles in apologetics and explaining why they believe in the God of the Bible. This is a must for every thinking persons bookshelf beucase it goes straight to the heart of hard to answer questions. I enjoyed the book mainly because it answered most of my questions with lavished accuracy and spared room for personal judgement on why or why not to accept the given arguements.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, On-Point, Convincing to Open-Minded, March 23, 2003

This review is from: Christianity: The Faith that Makes Sense (Mass Market Paperback)

This book makes a logical and reasonable case for the truth of Christ, the Bible, and the historic orthodox Christian faith. I have ready many books on apologetics and the Christian worldview, and this book is the most succinct and yet does not presuppose any extensive knowledge of Christianity. It is perfect for someone who knows little or nothing of Christianity but who wants to assess the claims of Jesus Christ and the historical reality of the biblical faith.

5.0 out of 5 stars Most sensible intro to Christianity I've read in 25 years, March 30, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Christianity: The Faith that Makes Sense (Mass Market Paperback)

The author takes the reader through the simple reasoning (facts) why Christianity makes sense. He then proceeds to introduce how a person accepts Christianity as real. The last section deals with how a person can turn facts into faith into using this faith in everyday life. It is written so simply that no one should reject the book even if they don't agree with the facts presented. It is short and easy to read. Great for evangelism.
