The Reason for God
A New York Times bestseller people can believe in—by "a pioneer of the new urban Christians" (Christianity Today) and the "C.S. Lewis for the 21st century" (Newsweek).
Timothy Keller, the founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, addresses the frequent doubts that skeptics, and even ardent believers, have about religion. Using literature, philosophy, real-life conversations, and potent reasoning, Keller explains how the belief in a Christian God is, in fact, a sound and rational one. To true believers he offers a solid platform on which to stand their ground against the backlash to religion created by the Age of Skepticism. And to skeptics, atheists, and agnostics, he provides a challenging argument for pursuing the reason for God.

I did this as part of a church small group…as always Keller explains well…and shows how a person can let the real Jesus find her!

Tim Keller does a great job working through many of the common objections to Christianity. He is easy to understand and very insightful.
By Mark Dillon
An excellent book that makes the case for God and the logic and truth of becoming and being Christian. It has motivated us to hold a class at our church. It will challenge the believer and non believer.

This is without a doubt the best Christian book that I have read in years. He explains better than most the truth of the Gospel.

Timothy Keller’s book is an easily accessible, convincing presentation of the intellectual arguments for faith. The author aptly reasons through dense philosophical and theological concepts such as sin, miracles, the triune God, and hell in easy-to-understand language, while acknowledging the purely auxiliary nature of his intellectual points to the central truths of the Gospel. Highly recommended.
