Book Review: The End of Reason

The End of Reason: A Response to the New Atheists The End of Reason: A Response to the New Atheists by Ravi K. Zacharias


My review


rating: 5 of 5 stars
I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Ravi Zacharias writes a magnificent response to Sam Harris' scathing attack on religion, especially Christianity in his two books, "The End of Faith" and "Letter to a Christian Nation." Ravi clearly and definitively reveals the holes in Sam's logic and shows us where following his type of thinking has lead us before and will lead us again. He also does a great job of defending the reasonableness of the Christian faith as well as showing us the hope that it offers. I highly recommend this book to anyone who has been exposed to Harris' writings or talks along with anybody who is generally interested in the science vs. faith debate.

Book Review: The Mystery of Marriage

The Mystery of Marriage 20th Anniversary Edition: Meditations on the Miracle The Mystery of Marriage 20th Anniversary Edition: Meditations on the Miracle by Mike Mason


My review


rating: 5 of 5 stars
I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Mike writes this more as a meditative journal entry than a how-to book. He explores all of the wonderful mysteries of marriage and how they compare to the mysteries of knowing and being united with Jesus. I was especially intrigued by his chapters on "Death" and "Oneness". I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is married or considering marriage. It's a great tool to inspire meditation and reflection.
