The Reason for God



One of the best books that I've been reading this year is one called "The Reason for God" by Tim Keller.

It's a book that seeks to answer a lot of tough questions people have about the God of the Bible. I highly recommend this to people who have genuine doubts about Christianity and, yes, even believers!

Here are the list of chapters:

Part 1: The Leap of Doubt
  1. There can’t be just one true religion
  2. A good God could not allow suffering
  3. Christianity is a straitjacket
  4. The church is responsible for so much injustice
  5. A loving God would not send people to hell
  6. Science has disproved Christianity
  7. You can’t take the Bible literally
Part 2: The Reasons for Faith
  1. The clues of God
  2. The knowledge of God
  3. The problem of sin
  4. Religion and the gospel
  5. The (true) story of the cross
  6. The reality of the resurrection
  7. The Dance of God
The author, Tim Keller, is a very clear communicator. He was even invited to speak at Google earlier this year:
