The Book I’d Recommend to Someone Exploring Christianity
“The Reason for God” by Tim Keller. It’s currently Number 7 on the NY Times best-seller list.
Keller is one of the most articulate Christian thinkers alive today. If you still have lots of questions about God, Christianity, etc., do yourself a favor and read this book. It’s straight-forward and honest; brilliant and simple to comprehend. All typical of Tim Keller.
Book Description
Why is there suffering in the world? How could a loving God send people to Hell? Why isn’t Christianity more inclusive? Shouldn’t the Christian God be a god of love? How can one religion be “right” and the rest “wrong”? Why have so many wars been fought in the name of God? These are just a few of the questions even ardent believers wrestle with today. In this book, Tim Keller uses literature, philosophy, real-life conversations and reasoning, and even pop culture to explain how faith in a Christian God is a soundly rational belief, held by thoughtful people of intellectual integrity with a deep compassion for those who truly want to know the truth.

I would also like to recommend Screwtape Letters. I think it gives an interesting perspective on the struggles that everyone goes through.
Great selection Chad. Hard to argue with that.
I’ve been out of the book loop I guess because I haven’t heard of this one. It looks good though. I’ll have to check it out. Thanks for the tip.
