Practical responses to common challenges from skeptics, atheists, and other critics of faith from the author of Compelling Evidence for God and the Bible.

These days, when many atheists and agnostics believe their criticisms of Christianity are unanswerable, it’s easy to feel intimidated. Perhaps you have been told:

• “Christians are hypocrites, and Christianity is corrupt.”
• “The Bible has been changed.”
• “There’s no proof for God.”
• “It’s either science or faith, and I choose science.”
• “A good God would never allow the pain and suffering we see in the world.”
• “There’s no historical evidence for Jesus. He’s nothing but a legend.”
• “All religions are basically the same.”

Answering Skeptics will equip you to make intelligent replies to dozens of charges like these. You don’t need to have a PhD to make a convincing reply. Giving a simple answer to a skeptic’s questions is easier than you may think.

Whether you are a student or teacher, veteran Christian or new believer, wrestling with others’ doubts or your own, Answering Skeptics is a volume you will return to again and again. Learn how to defend the Christian faith, demonstrate that it is both true and reasonable, and nudge the nonbeliever towards faith.

Just how prepared are you to answer the skeptic? Find out. Soon after opening Answering the Skeptics, you will know. And once you’ve digested it, you’ll be better equipped than ever!
