Apologetics
“accomplishing these sorts of tasks. Seldom will one find so many tough challenges to religious faith followed by even better explanations, all under one cover. I recommend this handbook of responses to atheism as a quick-read that is a real page-turner.”
Apologetics
“PRAISE FOR 10 Answers for Skeptics It’s not an easy task to answer tough questions briefly and to the point, yet Alex McFarland does it with flair! Seldom will one find so many hard-hitting responses in a single volume. Alex takes seriously the research that indicates that many, if not most, religious doubts, questions and anger directed at God comes not from a lack of answers but from a variety of emotional hurts and other existential issues. I highly recommend this quick read that allows skeptics to survey such a broad range of issues.”
A Simple Guide to Experience Miracles
Theology
“It often takes a scholar with gravitas and a firm reputation to risk moving readers toward an emerging position that is viewed skeptically by many peers. Miracles today? Where’s the data? J. P. Moreland is just such a researcher who thinks that the time has come to both take that challenge and place it within a framework that makes good sense. Very highly recommended.”
A Thematic Access-Oriented Bibliography of Jesus’s Resurrection
Apologetics
“If the subject of Jesus’s resurrection is your cup of tea, then this volume that categorizes thousands of related publications is a valuable resource. Written respectfully by a resurrection critic, Mike Alter has done his readers a favor by taking thousands of hours to compile these entries. A must-work for your research shelf.”
Apologetics
“Rather than engaging in specific critiques of the new atheism, Phil Johnson and John Mark Reynolds add their voices to the increasing scholarly chorus that decries the real oppressor in these and related discussions: unexamined naturalistic presuppositions that reject alternative ideas without a hearing. Declaring that uncritical attitudes and a lack of appreciation for ancient writings lie behind many recent criticisms of Christianity, the authors call for open discussion of the relevant issues. This volume is a treat to read, featuring a succinct, straightforward and easily digestible text that successfully treats issue after issue.”
Apologetics
“An incredible and well-informed read! Painstakingly researched, cognizant of the wide variety of relevant issues across the scope of this broad topic, and moving easily in and out of the philosophical depths involved here, Steve Parrish has compiled a multifaceted critique that must be reckoned with by naturalists. Highly recommended, indeed!”
Apologetics
“Recent public challenges to Christianity time and again seem to have been reduced to a series of often-repeated, skeptical sound bites or slogans. In this popularly-written volume, Fred von Kamecke considers more than a dozen of these complaints, finding a variety of reasons to declare that each charge is Busted. I recommend this convenient, well-written handbook that provides a ready set of responses to these popular challenges. Digesting this book can also help to provide a firm basis for the Christian faith.”
Apologetics
“This volume presents a helpful overview, exhibiting several strengths while introducing the field of Christian apologetics. Initially, it surveys a wide range of essential cognate areas, from critical thinking, to methodology, to a brief survey of apologetics through the centuries. Another asset is its treatment of several specific issues of current interest, such as Darwinism, Old Testament archaeology, scientific cosmology, pluralism, and the perennial problems of evil and suffering. The overall effort should provide believers with greater knowledge, clarity and assurance regarding their Christian faith.”
Did the Resurrection Really Happen?
Christian Living
“Well written, fast-paced, and filled with popular stories and illustrations, this book takes up the challenging question of whether Jesus’s resurrection is a historical event. Follow Timothy Paul Jones as he treks through nagging doubts and uncertainty, one reasonable step at a time. If you are learning why the resurrection is true, this is the sort of book you want to read. Intellectual gems that hit the right points are placed on a shelf that most readers, from young adults on up, can grasp without straining. Before you know it, you have worked through a case for Jesus’s resurrection and have reasons for your faith! Highly recommended!”
Apologetics
“Finally! A single volume that contains as a historical narrative a compendium of arguments pertaining to God's existence—pro, con, and from most religious perspectives—all under one cover. Fantastic! Highly recommended!”
World Religions
“Hexham is well known to his many readers through his publications on religious studies, both as a general field of research, as well as represented in various movements, both local and worldwide.”
History & Biography
“From the Introduction to the final chapter, the theme of this volume is that faithful adherence to the teachings of Scripture determines the overall health and vitality of the church, Christian doctrine, and even the well-being of society. Adam Murrell's sober challenge is traced down through the ages to the present, reminding the church to keep in mind the foundation on which she was built. Along the way, the text is an engaging read, presenting a plethora of historical events and explanations, all recounted and related to this central thesis, which deserves a good hearing.”
Four Views on Christianity and Philosophy
Philosophy
“must-have” book on a topic of critical importance to the Christian community. Far from little-known scholars, their lineup of participants includes some of the most well-known and well-respected philosophers in the field. Four Views on Christianity and Philosophy will serve as an engaging text for courses at the college, university, or seminary levels. It is smoothly written, easily understood, and features a spectacular clash of ideas from philosophers of diverse perspectives. Students will love it. This volume ranks among the very best of Zondervan’s wide array of Counterpoints books.”
Theology
“Rheaume is a fine scholar who has done a masterful job in communicating lofty theological concepts in understandable, everyday terms. Amply illustrated with numerous analogies throughout, this text truly allows the comprehension and mastery of substantial theological doctrine in terms that may be grasped readily. Highly recommended.”
Christian Living
“It’s been a long time since I have enjoyed a book as much as this one. Imagine Heaven by John Burke is clearly reasoned, makes use of the best sources for near-death cases, works carefully through some appropriate inferences, and draws relevant applications for our lives. It has always seemed to me that there should be a direct connection between a well-anchored concept of the afterlife and one’s practical commitment to life in this world. This work develops that link well. I recommend this volume highly.”
Apologetics
“When topics like intelligent design and fine-tuning are being explained, Hugh Ross is one of the beloved and most widely read scientific authors. Adding to Ross’s reputation, this book will not disappoint readers. Whether the topic is the mass of the universe, the Milky Way Galaxy, the failures of abiogenesis, or the Cambrian explosion, explosion, much of this text reads like the explanations behind the gorgeous photos of space that we often witness. I predict a wide audience!”
Is Jesus of Nazareth the Predicted Messiah?
Apologetics
“Few subjects regarding Jesus of Nazareth seem to receive so much positive treatment in popular circles but next to none in professional studies. In this volume, Doug Scott seeks to bridge that gap by subjecting many of the popular OT texts to careful critical scrutiny. . . . Recommended.”
