Apologetics
The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism
Timothy Keller
Dutton Adult
, 2008
The Reason for God Answers Modern Questions
Tim Keller is in touch with the questions that people these days are asking about Christianity's relevance. He is intelligent and thorough, but sensitive, humble and humorous. I highly recommend this book to anyone with questions about Christianity.
Mere Christianity
C. S. Lewis
HarperOne
, 2001
An invitation to be transformed ...
Fitting, I think, to be reading what may arguably be one of C. S. Lewis's most important books, on a retreat during which one of my personal goals was to find a spiritual, if not religious, inner peace. Reading the work of C. S. Lewis is to meet a friend who reflects ...
The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief
Francis S. Collins
Free Press
, 2007
Courage
The Languag of God had a profound effect on me. As a corporate director for a fortune 500 company I continually strive to incorporate spirituality in the workplace. Not as an in-your-face endeavor, but rather as an example. With the way the world is becoming and ...
A Grief Observed
C. S. Lewis
HarperOne
, 2001
Raw and true
CS Lewis looks death into the face; he does not flinch and does not console himself with platitudes. He had lost the love of his life and his pain is palpable to the reader. This is a raw and honest book but it is not at all depressing: At the end of the book, Lewis ...
Reasons to Believe: How to Understand, Explain, and Defend the Catholic Faith
Scott Hahn
Doubleday
, 2007
"Powerful Reasons -- Powerfully Expressed"
The term "apologetics" is often viewed negatively. Because of its etymological roots, many people view the word synonymously with "apology" in the common sense -- a labored defense of something done wrong, or a justification of that which cannot be justified. As ...
The Complete C.S. Lewis Signature Classics
C. S. Lewis
HarperOne
, 2007
Undated Truth
C.S. Lewis writes not about trends or fads that come and go, he writes about truth that is as applicable today as the day he wrote it. If you're searching for truth, or just trying to make sense of it all, I highly recommend the Signature Classics
The Case for Christ: A Journalist's Personal Investigation of the Evidence for Jesus
Lee Strobel
Zondervan
, 1998
A Journalist's Quest for the Truth
"In light of the convincing facts I had learned during my investigation, in the face of this overwhelming avalanche of evidence in the case for Christ, the great irony was this: it would require much more faith for me to maintain my atheism than to trust in Jesus of ...
No One Sees God: The Dark Night of Atheists and Believers
Michael Novak
Doubleday
, 2008
Excellent, if a little deep.
This is an excellent book presenting both a Christian reply to athiesm and an attempt to create a dialogue with athiests. It is very referential, though, so even though you are very well read, I recommend having reference materials available to clarify minor points.
The Screwtape Letters
C. S. Lewis
HarperOne
, 2001
Enlightening read for committed (and thinking) Christians
I don't know how well this great book translates to agnostic readers, but for me it was a very enlightening and concrete way to understand what it means to try to be a good man in a world of temptation. In keeping with the time period, I believe it was Winston ...
What's So Great About Christianity
Dinesh D'Souza
Regnery Publishing
, 2007
Great read for all who search
I found this book very well researched and very well written. It is not written like a textbook but it has answers to many questions that arise in a complex world where Christians, atheists and everyone in between need to try to understand one another. To live ...
The Faith: What Christians Believe, Why They Believe It, and Why It Matters
Charles W. Colson
,
Harold Fickett
Zondervan
, 2008
The Faith Chuck Colson
This book is a must read for all. Excellent free Bible Study material available too.
The Four Loves
C.S. Lewis
Harvest Books
, 1971
A Wonderful Overview
This is in my opinion C.S. Lewis's best nonfiction work. The premise has been done before, but rarely with the sort of insight given here. His overviews of Affection and Friendship are much too often overlooked and glossed over as unimportant, but here they're given ...
The End of Reason: A Response to the New Atheists
Ravi K. Zacharias
Zondervan
, 2008
Zacharias's work is most necessary and enlightening in reponse to "new atheists" teaching
Christian apologist Ravi Zacharias writes an eloquent yet firm response to author Sam Harris's LETTER TO A CHRISTIAN NATION, in which Harris debunks Christianity by telling readers that "science has the answers to our questions about life and that religion is the bane ...
Vintage Jesus: Timeless Answers to Timely Questions (Relit Theology)
Gerry Breshears
,
Mark Driscoll
Crossway Books
, 2008
Presents the person and work of Jesus Christ in a meaningful way for the average reader.
This isn't your Grandpa's theology book. Mark Driscoll & Gerry Breshears bring a fresh approach to timeless Christian doctrines about Jesus in a way that is sure to resonate with those (especially non-Christians and new Christians) in their twenties and thirties. ...
The Case for Faith: A Journalist Investigates the Toughest Objections to Christianity
Lee Strobel
Zondervan
, 2000
Great answers to tough questions we all have!
I read this book a couple years ago and have bought several copies to give to friends and family. There are many tough questions answered here... questions we all have but maybe are afraid to ask. I think this book is great for believers and non-believers alike. One ...
