Tackling 12 Questions About Faith, This Updated Edition of the Bestselling Apologetics Guide Explains Why Christianity Is the Most Reasonable Worldview To some, the concept of having faith in a higher power or a set of religious beliefs is nonsensical. Indeed, many view religion in general, and Christianity in particular, as unfounded and unreasonable. Frank Turek and Norman Geisler argue, however, that Christianity is not only more reasonable than all other belief systems but is indeed more rational than unbelief itself. With conviction and clear thinking, Turek and Geisler guide readers through some of the traditional, tested arguments for the existence of a creator God. They move into an examination of the source of morality and the reliability of the New Testament accounts concerning Jesus. The final section of the book deals with a detailed investigation of the claims of Christ. This updated volume with fresh arguments will be an interesting read for those skeptical about Christianity, as well as a helpful resource for Christians seeking to articulate a more sophisticated defense of their faith.
