About this listen

J. Gresham Machen once said, "False ideas are the greatest obstacles to the reception of the Gospel" - which makes apologetics that much more important. Wanting to engage not just academics and pastors but Christian laypeople and seekers, William Lane Craig has revised and updated key sections in this third edition of his classic text to reflect the latest work in astrophysics, philosophy, probability calculus, arguments for the existence of God, and Reformed epistemology.

His approach - that of positive apologetics - gives careful attention to crucial questions and concerns, including the relationship of faith and reason, the existence of God, the problems of historical knowledge and miracles, the personal claims of Christ, and the historicity of the resurrection of Jesus. He shows that there is good reason to think Christianity is true. As Craig says, "If you have a sound and persuasive case for Christianity, you don't have to become an expert in comparative religions and Christian cults. A positive justification of the Christian faith automatically overwhelms all competing worldviews lacking an equally strong case."

It would be nice if audible could add chapter names. Craig is one of the most articulate living Christian apologists. His book On Guard is for beginners, this book Reasonable Faith is an intermediate book and is excellent.

one of the best books on apologetics

This book is a very helpful resource for Christians who want to be able to present an intelligent defence of their faith.

I found the narrator easy to listen to and he read with a cadence suitable for the weight of the content. I was impressed with his pronunciation of the French and German names and titles. One mistake of the narrator was in his reading of probability equations as through they were arithmetic or logic equations. He reads, for example, "Pr(R|B)" as "P R times R or B," instead of "the probability of R given B." This error only occurs in the later chapters; the probability equations are read correctly near the start of the book.

A robust Christian apologetic

It took me some time to get into this book because I am a layman. I had to completed a crash course in philsophy on you tube, to understand reasoning and I purchased Dr William lane Craig 'on guard', book to understand reasonable faith it took approx 3 weeks to finally do all the above and read this book well worth the effort!
