Is it really reasonable to believe in Christianity? Challenging the assumption that religion is irrelevant in a world where empirical proof is the basis of our reasonings, Timothy Keller, author of New York Times bestseller The Reason for God, reverses the question: Isn't secular thinking just another set of beliefs? Keller puts secularism under the intellectual scrutiny that is usually applied to religion.
With a compelling knowledge of the secular belief system and a clarity of logic, Keller opens a conversation between writers such as Nietzsche and C.S. Lewis to reflect on meaning, hope, freedom, satisfaction, identity, and justice. 'If you think Christianity doesn’t hold much promise of making sense to a thinking person, then this book is written for you.'
Keller does not aim to prove God's existence, but his methodical approach powerfully calls into question the basis of many commonly held secular views. Written for both skeptic and believer, Making Sense of God shines a light on the profound relevance of Christianity in our modern lives.
'This is the book which convinced me of the truth of Christianity. If you want an overview of the main arguments for the existence of God and the truth of the core of the Christian message, this is a good place to start.' - Reader review
'The first Christian apologetics book I’ve read that’s actually written to (and for) the "intellectually enlightened skeptic." Keller delivers such a blistering critique of secularism that I was shook to my core. This book will make you think a lot.' - Goodreads reader review
'Lots of gold nuggets that will leave you mulling it over for days!' - Reader review
'Very in-depth book which allows the reader to make their own mind up based on the facts. A must read for everyone who is seeking the truth.' - Reader review
'Over the years, Keller became not just a Christian apologist but a sophisticated critic of secular liberalism, especially its worship of personal autonomy as the highest good.' - The Atlantic
