    I have a friend who has a grandson who went to church some as a kid, but his parents are not Christians. He is always asking his Grandmother (my friend) questions about God and spiritual things, he is a real introspective, a thinker. He is away at College this year, he is 18. He still has honest questions about Christianity and world religions. I believe this book would be a great tool for him and others like him.

    The book in infused with humor, even though it is a very serious topic. It is thought provoking and interactive. There are questions for reflection and discussion at the end of each chapter, very tough questions. I've been a Christ follower and believer for over 35 yrs and the questions and reflections really got me thinking of the "whys" of my faith. From the get-go I've just took God at His Word and I lived by faith and believed it was sinful to question God, but what about the times of doubt we all have, the hurts in life, seeming "unanswered prayer"and where is God now? The book doesn't make you feel guilty about any doubts you may have, but points to God's word.

    The questions addressed in this book are critical questions that pertain to Salvation and faith in God. It has great analogies, insights and stories to drive the authors points home. It is Biblical and sticks to Scripture. It is easy to understand and I would say "user-friendly", good for group study too.

    I received this book from Baker Publishing Group in exchange for an honest review. I would highly recommend this book to those who have any doubts or to those who desire to help others with their questions about out Christian faith.

    Answering the Toughest Questions about God and the Bibleis a book that answers a lot of questions that not-Christians or new Christians may have about Christianity and God in particular.

    The book answers several questions that are often asked, which I like. It also takes a comparatively takes a non-controversial route, and answers questions straight from the Bible, which is nice, because I can use some of the arguments more easily without needing to pick and choose.

    The defense and the explanation for each of the questions are very well-researched and cohesive, which is very helpful if I ever need to use it. Each of the questions starts being answered by starting at a very basic level, which is helpful as well.

    There are discussion questions at the end of each chapter, which allows for discussion and study in groups or by oneself.

    Overall, I like this book, and recommend it for anyone who has questions about God and the Bible, or is looking for answers for someone who is questioning stuff like this.

    My Rating:

    9/10

    Thank you to Bethany House Publishing for providing me with a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

    ANSWERING THE TOUGHEST QUESTIONS

    ABOUT GOD AND THE BIBLE

    By Bruce Bickel & Stan Jantz

    with Christopher Greer

    Got questions about God and the Bible, that OK everyone has had questions in this area. Bruce and Stan do their best in this book to try to answer those questions.

    Questions like:

    Is God real and How can you know?

    Why doesnt God make Himself obvious?

    Can I trust what the Bible says about God/

    Is Jesus God?

    These and many more questions receive answers in this well written and informative book. Ten chapters that ask the questions and the authors do their best to answer them. Each chapter starts with an introduction to the questions. Some of the questions came from Chris Greer, a pastor, who asked people individually and in small groups by online surveys for questions that they might have. The questions asked are shown and answered, discussion questions are offered at the end of each section. The layout is very helpful if you would like to use the book in a study group or just for your own private reading.

    Quoting from the rear cover of the book;

    With candor, insight, and a disarming touch of humor, Bruce and Stan provide some answers to these critical questions, yet they leave enough space ---and grace--- for you to keep wrestling, asking, and seeking truth.

    I found the book very interesting and contained Biblical facts and answers that are reliable and informative.

    Answering the Toughest Questions About God and the Bible, written by Bruce Bickel and Stan Jantz, published by Bethany House is a wonderful book. Inspired by a letter posted by an ex-Christian who felt restricted and judged when it came to questioning matters of faith, the authors surveyed people to find out what questions people have about God and the Bible today.

    The purpose of this book is to answer many of those questions brought forth by those people who are seeking a better understanding of their faith and to encourage Christians to be prepared to answer such questions from others. Some of the questions included in this book are: Is God real and how can you know? Why did God create us? Can I trust what the Bible says about God? Is Jesus God? and Why do Christians say Jesus is the only way to God?

    This book very straightforward, informational and easy to read. One great aspect is expression of encouragement the authors extend to Christians to ask serious questions and also to be prepared to give answers to those seeking them.

    This is a wonderful book for those who are questioning faith in God or the Bible, thus it is a recommended purchase.

    I found this book very straightforward and informational. I especially appreciated the way the authors encourage people to ask questions and to be prepared to give answers. They are clear on the idea that it is totally acceptable to keep wrestling, asking, and seeking truth.

    I would recommend this book to anyone questioning faith in God or the Bible and to anyone attempting to answer such questions from others.
