review 1: I had a pleasure of hearing Ravi Zacharias in person, he was so articulate and wise. The way he tackles controversial topics with ease and clarity is a gift from God. I also enjoyed how he develops stories into realities, therefore it is interesting to see his viewpoints concerning trivial and tough topics of what it means to live out authentic Christianity Additionally I watched many videos of him answering questions from the fans, always showing love without ever being evasive. Now unto the review told with brilliance and accuracy.The beginning of this book is what pulled me in. I liked how he first defined Who is God? That fundamental question often gets overlooked in Christian books but he clearly defined who is the one that some question his existence? Then he preced... moreed to go into the nature of his being, lastly he talked about the misconceptions about prayer and the perception of God. There were many highlights about this book that stood out to me, but the main thing was when he said humans tried to minimize God into their views, rather than the other way around. In other words, they stopped believing in God cause of who they want him to be and not who he wants them to be. Furthermore, he talked about the benevolent God who desires to have a relationship with his creation.I read a previous book by Zacharias, however this one was much better than the last one. Ravi is one to watch, he is so honest and loving to people of different religions and doctrines. I am glad that is the last book I read this year. This was an excellent book for church goers or the non religious ones.
review 2: Excellent examination of the issues that make us question our faith. I have always enjoyed the way that Ravi blends personal experience, autobiographical information, stories from literature and the arts, and God's Word to bring Truth to life. This is a book that I would highly recommend to all Christians who are concerned about sharing their faith with non-believers as well as having a solid "reason for the hope" that substantiates their faith. less

This was an okay read from Ravi. The most helpful chapter for me was the one on prayer.
