Faith Has Its Reasons is an invaluable resource for Christians who want to be equipped to give a reason for the hope that is within them, and to do so with confidence and conviction. Since the apostle Paul's historic encounter with Stoic and Epicurean philosophers in Athens, communicating the Christian worldview to a skeptical world has been a daunting task. Despite Peter's exhortation to be prepared to articulate the rational basis for our hope (1 Peter 3:15), many Christian laypeople have relegated apologetics to the realm of clergy and theologians. Faith Has Its Reasons bridges this gap by examining four prominent models of apologetics, evaluating their strengths and weaknesses, and proposing a comprehensive approach that incorporates the best of each. Boa and Bowman's masterful synthesis of Christian doctrine and apologetic methodology provides an indispensable resource for Christians seeking to engage an unbelieving world. This remarkable volume tackles pressing questions such as: Can belief in God be rationally justified in a world marred by evil? What historical evidence supports the church's claim that Jesus rose from the dead? Can we be certain of Christianity's truth claims? How can we ground our faith in Christ on a firmer foundation than personal experience without lapsing into emotionalism? Faith Has Its Reasons empowers Christians to confidently articulate their hope, providing a robust defense of the faith that resonates with both heart and mind.
