About this ebook

Ravi Zacharias and Vince Vitale defend the absolute claims of Christ against modern belief in the "secular gods" of atheism, scientism, relativism, and more.

The rise of these secular gods presents the most serious challenge to the absolute claims of Christ since the founding of Christianity itself. The Christian worldview has not only been devalued and dismissed by modern culture, but its believers are openly ridiculed as irrelevant. In Jesus Among Secular Gods, Ravi Zacharias and Vince Vitale challenge the popular "isms" of the day, skillfully pointing out the fallacies in their claims and presenting compelling evidence for revealed absolute truth as found in Jesus. This book is fresh, insightful, and important, and faces head on today's most urgent challenges to Christian faith. It will help seekers to explore the claims of Christ and will provide Christians with the knowledge to articulate why they believe that Jesus stands tall above all other gods.

Ratings and reviews

I really loved this book. It covers many different types of partial truths used by unbelievers. As a Christian Pastor who debates quite a bit with unbelievers, I like the way Dr. Zacharias categorizes different arguments into belief systems or "worldviews". Any Christian who wishes to get into Apologetics, should read this book. It will build a platform from which to further study to prepare you to give an answer of the gospel in this age of information.

very good book. As with his other books this is another one that's worth reading!
