Here Wallace shows that Jesus is the singular most influential person to have ever lived. With hundreds of graphics and images, this book gives in-depth knowledge of all the areas Jesus has influenced the world throughout history.
Natasha Crain
My number ONE recommendation for books (especially for parents).
She takes the hard quesions/issues and breaks them down into bite-sized easy-to-understand chunks. You’ll come away from these books with more understanding yourself as well as feeling ready to have these discussions with others.
Case for Christ
True story of how investigative journalist Lee Strobel came to know that the historical accounts of a man named Jesus are real and packed with solid evidence for a strong conviction of faith in what the Bible claims to be true.
Don't Have Enough Faith
The authors show how it actually takes MORE faith to believe there is no God than that there is one. A thought provoking work and worth the read if you have doubts or will encounter an atheist.
Case for a Creator
Lee Strobel interviews top scientists in their respective fields and gives a thorough yet not too over-your-head synopsis of many of the proofs and evidences for a creator, specifically the God of the Bible.
Tactics
Master question-asker, Greg Koukl teaches how to have effective, respectful, and productive converstations with others, especially those whose beliefs differ from your own. His tactics in this book help ease your fears about having these types of conversations too.
World Religions Handbook
A ton of well thought out information that doesn’t feel like a dry textbook. This book provides not only factual info on each religion/worldview but also personalized stories – best of both worlds.
Another Gospel?
A few years back Alisa found herself being led away from historical Christianity and into a different gospel. She works diligently to expose this false teaching that is overtaking America known as Progressive Christianity.
Bullies & Saints
John does a fantasic job of sharing the history of Christianity – no sugar-coating, dressing up, or brushing under the rug. He tells it like it is and does it in a very engaging way. If you like an Aussie accent, you’ll want to listen to the audiobook.
Evidence That Demands A Verdict
This is no small work! McDowell and his son have filled this volume to the brim with useful and thoroughly well indexed information. Read it cover-to-cover or use it as a reference.
Mama Bear Apologetics
More than an intro to apologetics, this book helps equip parents (or anyone working with young people) to have a mind that leans more towards critical thinking and how to teach that to your children.
Where God Came Down
This one is not just for the history and archeology enthusiasts. It’s structured a little more like a textbook but the chapters are short with plenty of pictures, diagrams, and historical and Biblical information. The mainstream would have us believe that the Biblical accounts are not verifiable – this book proves otherwise.
The God Hypothesis
This book may be more interesting for a science buff but either way it is very well written and engaging. And the information the Meyer gives shows that the science world cannot truthfully deny God.
On Guard
Review/blurb coming soon.
Mama Bear Apologetics - Guide to Sexuality
