The Christian world is slowly changing its reliance on a faith based solely on the unseen to one supported by actual, verifiable scientific proofs for Christianity. From the design of the universe to the reliability of biblical manuscripts, there are many observable and measurable evidences that Christians can cling to. Nathan Busenitz, assistant to John MacArthur at Grace Community Church, gives concise essays on many subjects, displaying a grasp of many aspects of apologetics. Dividing the book into six sections, Busenitz provides (after an introductory section) ten lines of evidence for belief in God, the Bible as the Word of God, the Gospels as historically reliable, Jesus (as Messiah, Son of God, and Savior), and Christ's resurrection. This is a great introductory text for apologetics, for handy quick reference, or as a gift to someone with a lot of questions.

Will strengthen your personal faith by demonstrating the reliability of both the Word of God and the person of Jesus Christ. Provides clear, concise, evangelistic tools to help you share that faith with others.

"Comprehensive and concise, qualities one rarely finds in the same volume. The book maintains a remarkable focus on Scripture itself. It shows how Christians can make use of traditional evidences and arguments within the Bible's own framework of thought." —John Frame, Professor of Systematic Theology and Philosophy, Reformed Theological Seminary; author of Apologetics to the Glory of God

In an age of cynics and skeptics, faith sounds empty and Christianity passé. But Reasons We Believe asserts that though our faith is unseen, it is not blind. Clear, concise, and credible answers are available for all who ask.

Reasons We Believe defends the veracity of the Christian faith and provides answers for believers and nonbelievers alike. Author Nathan Busenitz seeks to strengthen faith in his readers by demonstrating the reliability of the twofold authority on which Christianity rests: the Word of God and the person of Jesus Christ. His concise yet comprehensive survey presents biblically-founded reasons for embracing the existence of God, the reliability of the Bible, and the authenticity of Jesus Christ. Busenitz starts with the Bible as the foundation of all evidence, before he skillfully demonstrates how extra-biblical evidence corresponds with and thereby attests to what the Bible claims.

Reasons We Believe is designed to reinforce the faith of Christians while also providing them with a straightforward evangelistic tool for reaching unbelievers. The uniquely accessible format of Reasons We Believe, which is divided into fifty short and well-organized chapters, makes it a book you’ll turn to over and over again as you confront your own questions and those of others.
