and now for the book I've been reading all quarter...
Summary: Strobel investigates eight of the biggest obstacles to faith that people have by talking to experts on the various topics.
Comments: Very thought provoking. It seemed like on several occasions, something I read coincided with a discussion I had with someone a few days before/after. Do I believe that's a coincidence or that it was God's work? I only ask because towards the end of the book, he points out that in general people explain away evidence of God actually working in the world. I suppose it's possible that coincidences are God pushing things in a direction of his choosing. But it's also possible that things just happened that way or that we're making something of nothing.
Anyway, I think I've gotten off-topic. It's very much a thought provoking book, and ...I think it would be redundant to say it made me think. It expanded my thinking. Or maybe it propelled my thoughts in directions I might not have considered. I kinda want to go find the other books he's written and read those too. I seem to recall The Case for Christ being similarly thoght provoking.
