God's Not Dead: Evidence for God in an Age of Uncertainty
The evidence behind the hit movie! God’s NotDead is apologetics for the twenty-first century, presented in clear and easy-to-follow terms. Learn to defend your faith in a world that’s determined to tear it down.
The goal of God’s Not Dead is straightforward: to help readers develop a faith that is real and credible—and strong enough to help others find faith in God. Author Rice Broocks outlines a roadmap that guides seekers to acknowledge the most basic truths of Christianity:
- There is overwhelming and exciting evidence for God’s existence
- The God who exists is indeed the God of the Bible
- God has revealed his nature through his Son, Jesus Christ
As shown during the movie, this is the original book on which the main character bases much of his debate points with his atheistic professor. It contains persuasive arguments crafted with tools borrowed from logic, science, philosophy, and scripture that will solidify your faith and provide starting points for discussions with skeptics.
With clear, easy-to-follow explanations of key concepts and controversies, God’s NotDead is modern apologetics presented in layman’s terms. You will be empowered not only to talk about your own faith with confidence, but to lead others to a relationship with Jesus.
Top Highlights
“To say there is no evidence for this Creator is like saying the thousands of paintings in an art museum couldn’t have been painted because there are no artists visible in the gallery. The evidence of an intelligent mind behind the universe is so overwhelming that it has ‘shredded’ the notion that everything was produced by nature alone. The evidence for God is not found only in some obscure fossil or the untestable hypotheses of a theoretical physicist; it is glaringly present everywhere you turn.” (source)
“The existence of evil is not evidence of God’s absence in the universe but evidence of His absence from our lives.” (source)
“When the restraining force of God and His knowledge are removed, evil is free to fully express itself.” (source)
“To be angry with God for allowing evil is to be angry with Him for allowing you to be born and live.” (source)
“God created beings who had the capacity to fail. Failing meant making the choice not to do good.” (source)
