About this title

Review:

"Decades of Relativism's cultural erosion of Reason have put today's generation at risk of widespread confusion and deception. Josh and Sean McDowell effectively provide a grid of Truth?the only certain source of clarity for meaning and freedom for living. I commend them for this work and urge its reading by young-adult believers, their leaders, and all pastors."
?Jack W. Hayford, founder, The Church On The Way, chancellor, The King's College and Seminary

"We live in a world that thinks all truth is relative. In The Unshakable Truth, Josh and Sean McDowell point us back to the rock-solid, foundational truths of the faith. But even as they point us back, they also propel us forward into a deeper, richer relationship with God and equip us to live out the Cause that Christ has called us to?making disciples who make disciples. This valuable handbook not only provides an extensive exploration of the core truths of the faith, it also gives insightful, hands-on advice about how to relationally pass that truth on to the next generation."
?Greg Stier, president, Dare 2 Share Ministries

"In a world where Christians are struggling to experience the dynamic power of Christ in their personal lives, Josh and his son, Sean, have provided us with the essential truths that define the Christian faith. This resource is a must for every believer, regardless of age, who wants to find the abundant life in Christ that brings the fullness of joy to all of life.
"I already find myself going back to the 12 truths presented in this book to help me meet specific challenges I face as my faith is attacked by today's postmodern culture. Next to the Bible, The Unshakable Truth will become one of the most used books in my library."
?Glen Schultz, Christian educator, author of Kingdom Education

"Creation, redemption, and being restored to God is all about relationships. Josh and Sean have given us God's ultimate plan?a relational theology to believe and live out in relationship to him and one another."
?Gary Smalley, founder of the Smalley Relationship Center

"In typical McDowell fashion, The Unshakable Truth will fascinate and challenge you. It gives you the outline to understand God as the creator, God in the incarnation, and God as our re-creator. You will walk away with a biblical foundation on which to build your worldview.
"In four decades of teaching people how to study inductively, I've discovered that knowing truth?God's Word?for yourself makes you unshakable. Every minister, every pastor, should read this book. Then you should have your people read it as you model the truth in front of them. It's a privilege to endorse the work of this faithful father and son. Well done!"
?Kay Arthur, co-CEO, Precept Ministries International, and author

"The Unshakable Truth gives us a model of how to demonstrate the essentials of the faith to our young people."
?Paul Fleischmann, president, National Network of Youth Ministries

"Josh and Sean have nailed the priority of the church and provided pastors and church leaders with a biblical blueprint for ministry effectiveness and relevance."
?Dr. David Ferguson, executive director of the Great Commandment Network

"In many respects our young people have lacked a solid biblical catechism?teachings about God and his Word. And now Josh and Sean McDowell have delivered us such a catechism that can be taught and lived out in front of our kids. This is a much needed book."
?Ron Luce, president, Teen Mania

"Rarely can you find a masterful work that is both comprehensive and complete. This relevant resource will give you rock-solid answers to the real questions people are asking. Josh and Sean McDowell have made the most important truths of theology relevant, practical, and accessible for seekers and skeptics alike."
?June Hunt, founder, CEO, CSO (Chief Servant Officer), Hope for the Heart

"As the storm clouds of secularism threaten today's high school and college culture, there is a growing need for young believers to know what they believe and why they believe as they do. In The Unshakable Truth, the McDowells have addressed that need with clarity, completeness, and conviction.
"What is most impressive about this magnificent work is that it addresses crucial doctrinal and apologetic issues within a single volume. That alone is worth the price of the book."
?J.P. Moreland, distinguished professor of philosophy, Talbot School of Theology, and author of The God Question
