Why I'm Still a Christian
After Two Decades of Conversations with Skeptics and Atheists--The Reason I Believe
About this book
A compelling and intriguing discussion of why believing in God makes the most sense of human existence and our purpose on earth by one of the most respected Christian thinkers of our time.
"Highly readable survey of the reasons for Christian faith. Not just an academic exercise, Justin has respectfully engaged many thoughtful atheists and sceptics over years, which is always a test for a believer. The book is therefore very personalāit explains how his own faith has emerged while working through the challenges he has received." āTimothy Keller
Popular radio host and podcaster, Justin Brierley, has been creating and facilitating constructive conversations about faith for more than two decades. He is an expert in Christian apologetics and has had a ringside seat as believers and nonbelievers alike have debated Christianity. Surprisingly, Justin has come out on the other side of these debates more convinced than ever of the truth of Jesus' claimsāand the power of good conversations.
With this book, you get to watch Justin as he engages with the most unlikely of conversation partnersāfrom Richard Dawkins to Philip Pullmanāon the subject of faith. You'll understand why Justin, after hearing the strongest objections to the Christian faith and religion, is still a Christian. For him, God makes sense of human existence, the inherent value of human life, and our ultimate purpose on earth.
With this book, you'll explore tough questions, with Justin Brierley as your guide:
This book is a revised and updated edition of the Unbelievable book published in 2017, with a new chapter on deconstruction.
