Customer Reviews

Life-Changing

When I read this book I was skeptical of the Christian faith, but a friend gave it to me and it answered the most important questions I had about life. After reading it, I was encouraged to read the Bible for myself and understand exactly what Jesus Christ had accomplished for me. After reading this and the Bible I became a Christian. Those things being said, you can guess that this was a very helpful book for me.

Fantastic and Stimulating

What a great book! I am a Christian and I purchased this book to get an idea of what it was all about and how it could help me explain to my friends who are not firm believers in God and Christianity why Christians believe in God and Jesus Christ. It does help with certain questions people approach me with and I can more confidently express my own views along with the views of this book. I definitely recommend this book to any who has an interest in Christianity. It is not complicated and the author, Cliffe Knechtle, is very knowledgeable and gentle in offering his views. He surely opened my eyes a bit wider, and my heart.

Most Have, Real Answers

Great book for witnessing and answering some of the toughest questions often asked. This guy has a morning TV show as well as a church in CT. He also can be found in some areas on radio. His book came highly recommended to me when I asked a local Christian book store what books would be best for new believers as well as for non-believers. This book is refreshing and the answers are clear to understand. Refreshing because he doesn't use just the Bible and Christian views to backup what he says, he uses science, mathematics, or what ever there is to back up what he says.Diane

Fantastic book and a great tool for those looking to witness

Give Me An Answer is a great tool for anyone who is looking to share their faith in the Lord with others but feels unprepared to respond to some of the usual criticism and questions non-believers have. The author, Cliff Knetchle, presents the material in a very matter-of-fact yet no-holds-barred style that makes it easy to read and remember to reiterate later. The book is a quick read but an important one to anyone, believer and non-believer alike. Check it out.

Incredible resource for Christians with questioning friends

Knechtle travels to different universities across the U.S., setting up shop in free speech areas with a microphone and offering to answer any question anyone might have about Christianity. I first heard him speak when I was a student at the University of Florida. At the end of the day there would be over 300 people circled around as Cliffe handled every challenge. He points people to a relationship with Christ - disarming their pre-concieved notions with hard facts and a loving and honest attitude. This book is a synopsis of the his stock responses to the most common questions he is asked. It is intelligently yet accessibly written. It has been a invaluable tool when I have had friends who were honestly seeking, but had intellectual questions. I have passed this book on to many people.
