Read more Praise for Why God Makes Sense in a World That Doesnt This book delivers on its pledge to be both scholarly and inspiring. Writing from the heart, he shows us the eminent plausibility of the existence of God--and of the resurrection of Jesus.

A book to savor, and to pass on to friends and family. Matthew Levering, Mundelein Seminary Praise for Why God Makes Sense in a World That Doesnt In this engaging book, Ortlund stirs our deepest hopes and longings for infinite beauty and perfect goodness, longings we often ignore or repress. He goes on to argue that there are good reasons to sustain these hopes and that truth, goodness, and beauty are ultimately aligned. This is the ideal book to give thoughtful unbelievers, and one that believers will find most useful as a model for intelligent evangelism in the twenty-first century. Jerry L. Walls, Houston Baptist University Praise for Why God Makes Sense in a World That Doesnt Why God Makes Sense in a World That Doesn't offers an approach to apologetics that is much needed today. Gavin Ortlund makes an argument for God that is as rigorous as it is beautiful and is as convincing as it is compelling. Karen Swallow Prior, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary Praise for Why God Makes Sense in a World That Doesnt In this remarkably lucid and engaging book, Gavin Ortlund asks us to reflect on the 'affective' dimensions of a belief in God as the supreme source of truth, beauty, and goodness. When listening to music, or reflecting on the laws of mathematics, or expressing profound moral convictions, we sometimes experience longings for a transcendent 'beyond' that cannot be contained within the realm of 'the natural.' The Christian story, Ortlund argues, offers us a profound story in which these deepest yearnings of the human spirit are satisfied. Ortlund's compelling case is made with philosophical clarity, candor, and an impressive use of a wide variety of illustrations from fiction, poetry, and film. Richard J.
