The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism Timothy Keller
Dutton Adult, 2008
A masterful and clear explanation of Christianity Not a complete explanation of God, of course. But it must be one of the most clear and comprehensive ones. The author relies heavily on the Christian writers C.S. Lewis and G.K. Chesterton. But he does not ignore the opposition. Timothy Keller also very clearly ...

Broadway, 2002
A heartfelt reminder of the important things in life. After reading so many spectacular reviews, I decided to give this book a whirl myself, and I'm so thankful I did. First of all, I hate to read.

The God Delusion Richard Dawkins
Mariner Books, 2008
Repent now, the end time is nearer than you think!! This book is full of lies from the devil himself. The only truth is in the bible. The bible is 1/3 prophecy from God. Read it for yourself. The only way to eternal life in heaven is through Jesus Christ the son of God, who died to save us from eternal death in hell. ...
