The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism addresses the frequent doubts that skeptics, and even ardent believers, have about religion. Written by Timothy Keller, the founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, this book provides a thoughtful exploration of faith in a Christian God.

Why is there suffering in the world? How could a loving God send people to Hell? Why isn’t Christianity more inclusive? Shouldn’t the Christian God be a god of love? How can one religion be “right” and the rest “wrong”? Why have so many wars been fought in the name of God? These are just a few of the questions even believers wrestle with today.

In this book, Keller uses literature, philosophy, real-life conversations, and reasoning to explain how faith in a Christian God is a soundly rational belief, held by thoughtful people of intellectual integrity with a deep compassion for those who truly want to know the truth.

To true believers, he offers a solid platform on which to stand their ground against the backlash to religion created by the Age of Skepticism. And to skeptics, atheists, and agnostics, he provides a challenging argument for pursuing the reason for God.
