It has never been more important to articulate the wonder and enchantment of the Christian message. Yet the traditional approaches of apologetics are often outmoded in an age of profound disenchantment and distraction, unable to meet this pressing need.

This winsome apologetics book for a new generation makes the case that Christianity offers a compelling explanatory framework for making sense of our world. Pastor and writer Gavin Ortlund believes it is essential to appeal not only to the mind but also to the heart and the imagination as we articulate the beauty of the gospel.

Why God Makes Sense in a World That Doesn't reimagines four classical theistic arguments - cosmological, teleological, moral, and Christological - making a cumulative case for God as the best framework for understanding the storied nature of reality. The book suggests that Christian theism can explain such things as the elegance of math, the beauty of music, and the value of love. It is suitable for use in classes yet accessibly written, making it a perfect resource for churches and small groups.

The narrator, or robot, is awful. AWFUL. I am not putting it down because the book is so profound bit this is seriously a terrible listening experience.

This book is wonderful.

I think its one of the best modern apologetic books, Ortlund really comes from a personal and logical angle in this book and I;ve felt some of the arguments that I thought I would stop using have been revived and as he describes a stabilizer for my faith. Lord bless Thank God!

Great book

This was written during stay at home Covid times and it shows. Far too much time on all the technical arguments against God and the Trinity. Can’t believe I didn’t turn it off and get my money back.

First 6 hours are a Bore.
