DESCRIPTION:
A response to commonly asked questions about the Bible: authenticity, reliability, message. The topics are grand, but the style is easy to read. Begins with a summary of the metanarrative of the Bible then responds to questions about existence of God, characteristics of God, prophecy, miracles, Jesus, manuscript evidence, archaeology, authorship, verifiability, comparison to other sacred texts, the questions that confound, and effects of the biblical message in our world. The goal is for the reader to say at some points along the way, "I never thought of it that way before."
