Format: Hardcover
When David Limbaugh let his friend Steve know that he had doubts about Christianity, he was surprised by Steve’s response. Instead of a blast of arrogant judgmentalism, Steve responded like a Christian should—with grace and evidence. What has happened since that time is told in this excellent new book. Limbaugh artfully tells his journey from skepticism about Christ to skepticism about skepticism and ultimately to trust in Christ.

David is a lawyer, but he doesn’t write like a lawyer. While he’s intellectually precise, he writes as if he’s sitting across the table from you, anticipating your questions and objections. This is rare for a book of Christian evidences (often called Christian apologetics). Such books often read like technical manuals, but not Jesus on Trial. Limbaugh not only does a masterful job of highlighting the abundant evidence that supports Christianity, his insights into what the scriptures actually say will have you marveling at the tapestry of scripture and the Savior who wove it.

From the very beginning, Limbaugh bares his soul, holding nothing back about how his previous doubts were shielded by an embarrassing lack of knowledge. He writes, “I knew, after all, that I hadn’t really given the Bible itself a hearing, much less a fair one. To my surprise— and this is embarrassing to admit—Steve showed me how verses of Scripture, both Old and New Testaments, were tied to others in content and theme with remarkable frequency. Amazingly, I had never looked at a reference Bible before, and I was blown away. My ignorance was on display, but Steve wasn’t remotely judgmental— to help me learn more, he even gave me that Bible.

Over the past few years, I have become very interested in the field of apologetics. I've read quite a few books on the subject by a number of gifted Christian authors/thinkers from the past and present. The thing that struck me most profoundly about the book was the strong first person account of a skeptic overcoming his objections by letting his mind be used to help change his heart instead of the other way around. The author frequently uses quotes from a huge variety of sources to illustrate the reasoning (and the Reason) behind his conversion and the logic upon which his faith has been built. Funny, personal, and informative. Definitely worth a read.

I wasn't sure what to make of this book until I understood the audience that David Limbaugh was writing it for.

He's NOT writing it for people who have already made their minds up:

If you're into middle age or beyond and are a confirmed agnostic you're very likely going to say, "David Limbaugh is a deep-thinking author who masters his points and writes them with clarity. But he didn't convince me that there is a God."

If you're already deep into your life's walk through the Christian Faith you're likely going to say: "David Limbaugh reaffirmed my faith. He educated me to details that will help me to understand my faith more deeply, but on a fundamental plane he didn't tell me anything that I wasn't already convinced of."

Thus, if your mind is already made up, this book won't change it. Those who will find this book revealing are most likely be in their late teens through their late 20's --- young people who are trying to judge for themselves whether the Bible is fact or fiction.

This would be a person who has grown up in a church-going family. Then he or she comes of age and sees the world, with all its blemishes, for the first time through adult eyes. He/she asks: "If God did make the world then He must be incompetent or crazy. He made a world where the people who are most likely to prosper are the evil-doers who step on everybody else, while the most innocent people are the ones who get their throats cut. What kind of god does THAT? I'd rather believe in an honest Devil than a deceiving God!"

David Limbaugh talks to people who have Jesus on Trial in their minds by making these points:

1. The Bible has a self-reinforcing tapestry that is unlikely to have been invented by Man.

If you are a Christian or non believer, I highly recommend you get this book out today. It's a comprehensive look at David Limbaugh's personal faith journey. It brought me back to my early years as a Christian (and even before) when I had many questions. If you've ever questioned your faith, are skeptical of Christianity, or are a believer who never wavers (do you exist?), you will love this. It's a great resource with lots of documentation that I will refer to for years to come. I would also recommend it to church small groups looking for a deeper dive into the Bible.

Do yourself a huge favor and read David's latest! JESUS ON TRIAL is a straight-ahead description and explanation as to who Jesus was and is. You may be a skeptic, you may already be a believer; this book is for both. I read JESUS ON TRIAL in one sitting. David has that wit-- that mixed with his thorough research; will draw the reader's attention page after page. Go get it!
