Publisher's Description
Intellectual support for defending your faith. Knowledge of God in the World and the Word is a clear and succinct introduction to classical Christian apologetics that also addresses the most common objections to natural theology. Amid the crisis of authority in our modern and postmodern era, Christians need to be able to point to God's revelation in the natural world in addition to defending God's unique revelation in the Bible and in the person of Jesus Christ. Classical apologetics takes a two-step approach to commending the Christian picture of reality—first establishing arguments for the existence of God and then defending key items of Christian revelation, including: The reliability of the Bible. The identity of the historical Jesus. The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. With this book, you will discover an easy point of entry into understanding why Christian beliefs about Jesus are true and rational. Perfect for any Christian who wants to articulate a sophisticated and comprehensive defense of their faith.

“Astute and accessible, comprehensive and compelling, here’s an outstanding introduction to classical apologetics. You’ll find yourself going back time after time to this invaluable reservoir of insights and wisdom. Read it with a highlighter in hand!”
“share powerful arguments for Christianity. Read it. Study it. Then go and tell of this God revealed in the world and in the Word.”
“I heartily recommend this valuable volume by Doug Groothuis and Andrew Shepardson. Their book serves as an excellent guide about reasons for God’s existence and the Christian faith. In addition to clearly laying out these arguments, the authors place them in their proper theological and philosophical context. What’s more, the authors include examples from their own academic and ministry experiences, helping bring these arguments into a clearer light and make them more accessible and relevant.”
“Atlantic University, and author of Is God a Moral Monster? and Is God a Vindictive Bully? If there’s anything our world needs today, it’s the knowledge of God—and this book delivers! It is academically astute but also highly accessible to readers who are new to the topic. And in the end it shows how we can apply what we’ve read to our everyday conversations with friends and colleagues who desperately need the information we’ve learned. This book is a winner!”
