The Reason for God is divided between two section answering objections and then presenting a positive case for the Christian faith. Of the two, the first section is the more successful. The objections and the responses are contemporary in focus, and the presentation is positive and winsome. Keller's tone is the strongest aspect of the work, as the arguments are emotionally compelling even if they are not so intellectually. The faults of the church are not glossed over, but the picture of the church and the faith is presented in its most ideal form, appealing to the desire for the claim to be true even if it cannot be established to be true beyond all doubt. While not all of the arguments are equally persuasive, Keller offers a cumulative case for acceptance of the faith. The second half presenting the positive case for Christianity is less effective than the response to objections. However, the work does not attempt at a definitive proof of the Scripture's reliability or the truth of the resurrection. It offers an invitation to deeper engagement with the faith. The Reason for God represents one of the most compelling and effective apologetic works that is actually addressed to the skeptic

Using literature, philosophy, real-life conversations, and potent reasoning, Keller explains how the belief in a Christian God is, in fact, a sound and rational one. 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.

Reason For God.
Why does God allow suffering in the world? How could a loving God send people to Hell? Why isn't Christianity more inclusive? How can one religion be 'right' and the others 'wrong'? Why have so many wars been fought in the name of God?
These are just a few of the questions and doubts even ardent believers wrestle with today. In The Reason for God, Keller uses literature, philosophy, real-life conversations and reasoning to explain how faith in a Christian God is soundly rational belief, held by thoughtful people of intellectual integrity with a deep compassion for those who truly want to know the truth. It also provides a platform to help true believers when speaking to skeptics, agnostics and athiests. ( )

With more people pulling away from Christ, there has to be a NEED for God and the reasons the cross is so important.

Now in paperback, an intelligent, intellectually rigorous examination of why the Christian faith still makes sense in an age of scepticism.
This book has been written for believers and non-believers, sceptics and churchgoers, and charts a brilliantly considered and impassioned path to Christianity - a 'Mere Christianity' for the twenty-first century.
At a time when scientists and critics such as Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens are questioning the validity of religion, this book uses literature, philosophy and reason to explain how faith in a Christian God is a soundly rational belief.
Timothy Keller, pastor of an inner-city New York church, looks at some of the most widespread accusations levelled at Christianity, including Christianity's claim of exclusivity; how a good God could allow suffering; why the Church is responsible for injustice; and if science has disproved religious belief.

I could go on, but I do not want to undermine the good there is in Keller's book. No book apart from Scripture itself is perfect and so I want to commend Reason for God but note my concerns. But I am likely to hear the retort that Keller's way of doing apologetics is better than my way of not doing it. I would prefer to do apologetics in a way consistent with Scripture and my confessional commitment. Be that as it may, perfect book or not, Keller is to be commended for venturing out into the marketplace.
