bookwomanjoanOak Harbor, WAAge: Over 65Gender: Female5 Stars Out Of 5best book on apologetics I've readOctober 31, 2010bookwomanjoanOak Harbor, WAAge: Over 65Gender: FemaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5This is the best book on Christian apologetics I've read. Challenges to the Christian faith are coming fast and furious. The Bible tells us we are to have a defense for our faith. Mittelberg has given us a great tool to do exactly that.
Christians were asked in a survey which questions about faith would make them most uncomfortable when asked. The top ten responses form the outline for this book.
Some of the questions include those about God's existence, evolution, supposed biblical contradictions, the problem of evil, abortion, homosexuality, and the existence of heaven and hell.
Mittelberg first identifies the question or criticism so the reader is well prepared for the issue. Then he gives detailed answers to issue or question. He frequently suggests other resources to fill out the readers' knowledge of apologetics. A bibliography at the back gives further resources.
At the end of each chapter is a summary of the answer, tips for talking about the issue and great questions for group discussion.
Lastly, Mittelberg reminds his readers that the world would like for Christians to always be on the defensive. He suggests, "the defense can and should naturally flow into an appropriate and effective offense (without being offensive)." (292) He shows how to take each of the critical questions and turn them around to challenge the skeptic.
This is the most well done apologetic book I've read, and I've read many. If you want to know how to dialogue with your atheist neighbor, this is the book for you.

JenniferSan Diego, CAAge: 45-54Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Very thorough and insightfulOctober 29, 2010JenniferSan Diego, CAAge: 45-54Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5There are just some questions that are difficult to answer. They're tough and uncomfortable to the point that we hope we can just avoid those topics in conversation. But, avoiding the difficult questions keeps us from talking about what we really believe--and the faith that's changed our lives!
Mark Mittelberg has tackled the tough questions head-on, and he's done it in a way that's true-to-life, theologically sound, and easy to follow. Mark and his team conducted surveys to collect the list of most difficult questions, and then he answered them biblically and with real-life illustrations.
Of all the books I've read, this one had the best, most understandable answer for questions about homosexuality and the Bible. That's been a tough question for me to answer, and Mark Mittelberg provided an explanation that dealt with our sinful nature, was true to Scripture, and yet was understanding of people and the sensitivity of this question. In addition, I really appreciated the book's discussion of why Christians are viewed as judgmental. How can we remain true to the Bible, and yet "judge not"?
I recommend this book to anyone looking for some excellent answers to those questions you hope no one will ask. -
