Kenneth Boa and Robert Bowman have assembled a wealth of information about what Christians believe and how to present that faith to an unbelieving world. Remarkable, both in its depth of content and ease of accessibility, Faith Has Its Reasons gives Christian laypeople the tools to address such critical questions as:
\225 Why is belief in God rational despite the prevalence of evil in the world?
\225 What facts support the church's testimony that Jesus rose from the dead?
\225 Can we be certain Christianity is true?
\225 How can our faith in Christ be based on something more secure than our own understanding without descending into an irrational emotionalism?
Using conversations with two hypothetical and vastly different individuals (one a skeptical, nominal Protestant and one a nominal Hindu), Boa and Bowman illustrate how four of the most widely used approaches to Christian apologetics-reason, fact, revelation, and faith-can be used to answer questions of faith. In doing so, they also explain the strengths and weaknesses of these varying approaches.
Faith Has Its Reasons is about much more than developing the intellectual discipline to answer abstract questions. Ultimately, its purpose is to help bring people into a relationship with the living and true God.
