Buckley presents a compelling book offering faith in God through the lens of
science, philosophy, and historical evidence for God. Science-backed proof of
the existence of God coincides with theories such as the Big Bang Theory,
evolution, etc., as she offers answers to why Creation and the Universe point
to the organization of a Designer. That “Designer” is God, the Creator of the
Universe who sent His Son to pay the debt for sin. Her evidence addresses the
“age-old” debate many have engaged in, wondering if there is really a God. She
has written this book to answer the question of “why” people should
believe. She shares her faith journey
and knowledge in sharing with her young teen son, as he wrestled with doubt if
there was really a God.
Examples
of the questions answered in this book are:
- How
can I fully trust God when I can’t physically see Him or touch Him?
- What
happens after death? Do Heaven and Hell really exist?
- What
should I trust? Scientific evolution or creation?
- If
God is real, then why do people suffer?
She
states, “I want to assure you God is real. The Bible is His word. Jesus died
for your sins. He loves you more than you can ever imagine and is worth your
trust.”
With
a direct and easy-to-read book, the author gives evidence that refutes many
different theories and presents the undeniable truth of the God Who created the
Universe and created you. Faith in God and understanding truth in the reliability
of the Word of God are brought to the surface. She gives the reason why the
resurrection is the defining point of Christianity, making Christianity
different from all other religions. Miracles, the power of prayer, and the role
of the Church give insight into the Bible as our source and God’s Word. This is
an interesting read offering insight to some of the disciples and writers of the
Bible, giving proof to their findings. Her book displays how God has worked in
all these things. Therefore, she offers 21 reasons for trusting in God.
This
is a profound and powerful book that is written to transform others’ lives and
to lead them into a living faith by discovering “undeniable evidence” of God.
A
must-read for all who doubt the existence of a God, their purpose in life, and
wonder if there is an afterlife, and if Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven. These and many more answers offer truth for
one to find faith in God, knowing and trusting that God is in fact real.
I also
highly recommend this book for those who know they are searching for more in
this life and wonder what religion is the truth. Finding the truth is not
finding a religion; however, understanding what faith is, why God created you,
and Who He is makes all the difference in one’s search. God is not hiding. He
wants a relationship with you and wants you to go to heaven after you die.
