Faith and Reason: Why Christianity Makes Sense

Rating:
Summary: This book was the reason I came back to the Church
Review: I cannot say enough good things about this book. It convinced me to embrace Christianity and to come back home to the Catholic Church, the home of my baptism. It is written in a easy-to-read fashion that is perfect for any layperson and perfect for passing along to others who may wonder why people become Christians in the first place. It contains 256 pages.

Some of the topics include:
* God exists - and His existence can be proven by reason
* God is not a force, but a personal being who loves us
* Evil does not disprove the existence of a good God
* Each individual soul was created by God and is immortal
* Religion is the reasonable response to the goodness of God
* The Christian Gospels are God's revelation of Himself to us
* Christ Himself was truly God, but He was also truly man
* Christ died on the Cross for the salvation of all mankind
* Christ established a Church, to which all should belong
* That the Church still exists and has authority today

I hope that you will take the jump for it and invest in this very readable book. Once you have read it, I suggest you pass it along to others whom it might prove fruitful. And for those whose curiousity is piqued in Catholic theology, I suggest Frank Sheed's "Theology and Sanity" for a real and more in depth treatment. God Bless You on your journey to the faith.
