Review:

"Other books have made the point that presuppositional apologetics is compatible with the use of evidences, but few have shown practical ways of bringing these together. The Certainty of the Faith presents an ‘integrated’ apologetic that uses many of the traditional types of arguments, as they are appropriate to different practical situations, always honoring the biblical teachings about how we come to know God. . . . The book is an excellent study tool, with graphics and questions for review and reflection." --John M. Frame, Trimble Chair of Systematic Theology and Philosophy, Reformed Theological Seminary (Orlando)

"Richard Ramsay has provided college students and, specifically, those who minister to college students, a useful and practical manual giving ‘honest answers to honest questions.’ This book does not simply say, ‘here are the answers and I dare you to think.’ It actually engages the reader in a warm and relational way." --Rod Mays, national coordinator, Reformed University Ministries

"His apologetic approach is clear, sensitive, adaptive, and bold. It is practically applied in detail and honesty to some of the toughest questions we face about our faith. Good discussion questions at the end of each chapter enhance individual and small group learning. I recommend this book as a terrific aid to our evangelistic endeavors on campus." --Chris Keidel, area director, InterVarsity Metro Philadelphia/Delaware
