Review:
Josh McDowell was one of the first guests to feature on my radio debate show Unbelievable? and Sean has been one of the most recent. I've been hugely impressed by both generations of Christian thinkers. In this new edition of Evidence That Demands A Verdict, their combined knowledge, integrity and passion for sharing the gospel has produced something truly special. Evidence was the book that first brought evidential apologetics to a popular audience. This updated edition, comprehensive in scope and yet immensely readable, will powerfully present the latest evidence to a new generation with a new set of questions. This book remains an essential resource for every thinking Christian who wants to give a reason for the hope that they have. JUSTIN BRIERLEY, presenter of the Unbelievable? radio show and podcast Here s a treasure trove of apologetic gems! This is an indispensable book that all Christians should keep within reach. Countless people benefited from the original version, but this updated and expanded edition makes this volume even more valuable and timely. Thank you, Josh and Sean this classic resource has my very highest recommendation! LEE STROBEL, bestselling author of The Case for Christ and professor of Christian Thought at Houston Baptist University --Justin Brierley, Lee Strobel
This book changed my life. It showed me the staggering welter of evidence for the historicity of the Bible and convinced me that having faith in the biblical God is infinitely more rational than not having such faith. Any agnostic or atheist reluctant to become a Christian must take every precaution available to avoid this book. ERIC METAXAS, author of Martin Luther: The Man Who Rediscovered God and Changed the World and host of the nationally-syndicated Eric Metaxas Show Significant. Timely. Life-Changing. For decades, Evidence That Demands a Verdict has met believers, seekers, and sceptics at the intersection of faith and fact, laying a foundation of unshakeable, time-proven truth for us to stand on through ages of scepticism, mysticism, and so-called tolerance. I am thrilled for the updated and expanded edition of this landmark resource to reach the hearts and minds of a rising generation, and I trust it will have the same impact in their lives as it did in mine. I m grateful for Josh and Sean McDowell s relentless passion to equip and empower God s people to confidently and boldly stand for truth. You ll want to keep this book close at hand! LOUIE GIGLIO, pastor of Passion City Church, founder of Passion Conferences, author of Goliath Must Fall --Eric Metaxas, Louie Giglio
My friend Josh McDowell and his son Sean have given us an updated and relevant twenty-first-century tool to encourage faith and trust in the reliability of Scripture.
