Book Reviews of The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism

Book Review: "The wisdom from above is reasonable..."
Summary: 4 Stars

Timothy Keller has written a good book, designed to appeal to both skeptics and believers. The first section of the book deals with doubts about Christianity that many believers have, as well as the most common objections to Christianity that skeptics have. The second portion of the book deals primarily with reasons for having (and keeping) faith.

Keller makes an interesting point in his introduction: "A faith without doubts is like a human body without any antibodies in it." I believe that an unexamined faith is not worth believing in. I was raised in a Christian household, and even if I didn't know the answer to a particular question right then, I always knew that eventually (through study and research) I'd find the answer. Keller encourages Christians to examine their beliefs and ask themselves not only what they believe but why they believe it.
