By far, it is the best book on the subject by a contemporary author. In this book, Craig argues for the Christian faith using what has been called the "classical" method of apologetics. That is, he argues first for the existence of God (theism) and then for the truth of the Christian faith. The first chapter deals with religious ...             Faith, Hope, and Ivy June7 reviews Phyllis Reynolds Naylor Delacorte Books for Young Readers, 2009 Courtesy of Teens Read Too FAITH, HOPE, AND IVY JUNE is about two girls from totally different places and backgrounds who participate in a student exchange program.

Indeed, it is by far the best book on religion written from an evolutionary perspective, far surpassing the cranky and deeply flawed works of Harris, Hitchens, and Dawkins. I say this because these other books fail to acknowledge that religion is universal and ...             The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason862 reviews Sam Harris W. W. Norton, 2005 Fuel for endless passionate debates... With arguably no topic in America more contentious and hotly debated than religion (oddly enough), it is important to ponder the rationality of stated and unstated religious wars (or just one-on-one killings for the same purposes). In absence of a compulsory high-school course on "comparative world religion and philosophy," this book, as a minimum, provides a few interesting observations. ...             The Faith: What Christians Believe, Why They Believe It, and Why It Matters67 reviews Charles W. Colson, Harold Fickett Zondervan, 2008 Clear and concise As a Baptist Minister, I am aware of the varying views church members hold concerning topics such as salvation, grace and the nature of Christ. Many church members have trouble specifically describing what their views are, but their comments and their actions convey their beliefs. This book is an outstanding resource for anyone who desires a deeper, clearer explanation of what it means to be ...             The Future of Faith7 reviews Harvey Cox HarperOne, 2009 Harvey Cox Reply to Jesus on the Future of Faith "Harvey Cox was therefore concerned not so much with 'eternal' truths as with truth for today, truth for action, and he suspected that a faith which responded primarily to ideas was more likely to be idolatrous and less likely to be redemptive than one that responded to events and experience." [...] Logic and discovery of faith: Harvey Cox, a young Harvard professor became the ...             The Case for Faith: A Journalist Investigates the Toughest Objections to Christianity234 reviews Lee Strobel Zondervan, 2000 The Case for Faith by Lee Strobel The book was in good shape and it is an invaluable apologetic resource.             Family Driven Faith: Doing What It Takes to Raise Sons and Daughters Who Walk with God37 reviews Voddie T. Baucham Jr. Crossway Books, 2007 Loved it! Voddie Baucham is a wonderful speaker, and author. I love his teachings. I also recommend that you listen to his centrality of the home CD from vision forum. Some of the things he says on the CD is a repeat of what he says in his book. The cd is not exactly like his book, but it will give you another great teaching of his. Vision Forum has many good teachings that my family listen to on a daily ...             Speaking of Faith: Why Religion Matters--and How to Talk About It30 reviews Krista Tippett Penguin (Non-Classics), 2008 Speaking of Faith by Krista Tippett My book arrived quickly (within the time frame indicated) and in excellent condition.

Having spent most of the summer in the hospital ...             Charles and Emma: The Darwins' Leap of Faith8 reviews Deborah Heiligman Henry Holt and Co. (BYR), 2008 Fascinating Biography of Charles and Emma Darwin Few books offer as much human insight, inspiration, humor, and encouragement to enjoy science as this one. Heiligman has a sure touch as a biographer, using the telling remark or anecdote to flesh out the characters and explain their struggles, conflicts, and resolutions. Anyone who would like a short book on one of the world's great thinkers--and the conditions of home life that allowed him to ...             Faith and Doubt17 reviews John Ortberg Zondervan, 2008 Faith and Doubt We used this book in Bible study and found it to be outstanding in the problems most people run into.

Currently Hunter has three books sold in this series. The second book "Blood Cross" is due out on Jan 5 of 2010. I really, really loved this book.

Eerdmans Publishing Company, 2004 Faith Seeking Understanding I am reading this book for a class and have enjoyed every moment of it.
