It Couldn't Just Happen Knowing the Truth About God's Awesome Creation By Lawrence Richards


This is an extremely informative, excellent book on apologetics - answering tough questions like
“Did Earth begin with a ‘Big Bang’ cosmic explosion?”
“Does science contradict the Bible?”
“What happened to dinosaurs?”
“Is there life on other planets?”
“Did we evolve from apes?”
“What makes my body work on its own?”

I am really really attracted to the uniqueness of this book to make the enormously complex issues like ones highlighted above into simple, comprehensible materials that can be digested at the level of a teenage kid.

Although originally intended for kids, I find this book to be informative for myself too. As a lecturer and as someone who deals with college students in CF, this book is an excellent book for me to carry along in my iPad wherever I go, because it contains an enormous wealth of scientific information, that adhere to the sovereignty and creativity of our Creator God. To those who are not so inclined to scientific arguments, the materials contained in this book may seem a bit daunting and mind-blowing, but to those who love science, including myself, this book is simply, simply amazing!

Highly recommended!

Book Review: Don't Check Your Brains at the Door By Josh McDowell & Bob Hostetler


Don't Check Your Brains at the Door by Josh McDowell & Bob Hostetler indeed is a great, attractive book for teens to read. It gives teens the answers that make sense, even for the toughest of questions.

In this book, McDowell and Hostetler offer clarity to these perplexing questions, and laced them with humor to expose common myths about God, the Bible, religion, and life to show how Christianity stands up to the test of fact and reason.

This book will help young people to better equipped to stand up for their faith as they begin to understand why they believe and why it's important to make a lifetime commitment to Christ and the church.

The contents of this book include common myths about God, myths about Jesus, myths about Bible, myths about the Resurrection of Christ, myths about Christianity, and even on more personal issues facing young people such as temptation issues, the sex questions, etc.

In other words, this book present apologetics in a lively, easy-to-relate manner to these young people.

I like the way the chapters are presented - short and crisp! Each chapters contain only 2 - 3 pages, can be easily read in a few minutes. The best part is the 'Brain Food' section found at the end of each chapter - more serious stuffs for those to go further and more detailed on that topic.

In short, this is a highly recommended! Highly recommended apologetic book for young people....
