About the book:
Clear, convincing answers to the toughest questions we face
We all have questions about faith. If there is a God, why is there evil in the world? Why would a loving God send people to hell? Can we trust modern translations of the Bible? Why did Jesus have to die? How can I know God's will for my life? What is God's position on things like abortion, cloning, same-sex marriage, capital punishment, and euthanasia? Should Christians be involved in politics?
With insight and precision, this comprehensive resource addresses one hundred penetrating questions that need satisfying answers, including controversial questions raging in the public sphere and personal questions about family issues, the purpose and meaning of life, and the future of the world.
My review:
This book is amazing! It has so many questions I've thought about and I'm sure others have, too. The answers vary in length from 1-3 pages with an application section for applying it to our lives, quite a few Bible references, and a list of other resources such as books, a website, a DVD and an online video. They're organized very well with sections about God and truth, creation and the Bible, Jesus and the Holy Spirit, Heaven and Hell, and even a section about other religions! There are also sidebars that explain or give additional facts. This book is wonderful for answering questions you've wondered about or that someone might ask you. It's a great resource with accessible information if someone asks a hard question you don't know how to begin to explain or would take a long time to put together yourself. It would also make a great gift to someone searching or who has questions. I highly recommend this book!
I received this book free from Baker Books in exchange for an honest review.
