Wondering About a Relationship With Christ?

For the last couple of months my wife and I have been on our way back to developing a personal relationship with God. I felt my previous agnostic beliefs were not fullfilling enough for me anymore. However, I did have many unresolved questions about Jesus, Christianity, and the belief of God in general.Reading this book helped me sort out all of those thoughts in an organized, intelligent manner. Palau does not "preach" in this book. Rather he explains all viewpoints and their counter arguments from religious and skeptical points of view, and tries to shed some light on the subjects. I found it to be very helpful as a somewhat "confused seeker" of the truth. As a result of reading this book, my wife and I have entered into a relationship with God and Jesus Christ and have found new happiness and peace in our hearts.

God IS Revelant Indeed

I recently read this book and enjoyed it very much. It didn't unfold like I expected as the author talks at length about the belief systems of atheists, several well known individuals in particular. That I found that to be most clear and informative.

Great! Excellent! Very Good!

I finished reading this book a few days ago and I really enjoyed it because Luis Palau wrote to so many different audiences. Is not for the Christian alone, but for those who question or might question the existance of a God who is concerned and relevant to what happens in out society. It was well written. I guarantee you won't fall asleep reading it. One thing I like is the fact that Mr. Palau is not trying to make you believe what he is trying to portrait but he just lay it down on the table and you'll decide whether the God Christians preach is real or false, is relevant or not to human lives. One little detail that bugged me about this book was the fact he didn't give credit to Jesus Christ for giving him the inspiration to write this book. I believe Jesus Christ must be first on the credit list. Other than this, this book should be part of your library.
