Reviews / Votes

"The Comprehensive Guide to Apologetics is an antidote for a world swirling in skepticism and doubt. Both believer and seeker will find refreshing this comprehensive volume that contains life-changing truth, written in an easy-to-understand style, by some of the most well-known scholars of our time. This is a must-read for anyone who seeks to share the gospel and defend the faith!"
-Josh McDowell, founder of Josh McDowell Ministry author, speaker, apologist "Christian apologetics is often thought of as a relatively unimportant field on the margins of practical theology-with few practitioners other than right-wing clergy and untrained laity, and offering more heat than light. This volume should disabuse any reader of that stereotype. The book demonstrates clearly the breadth and depth of contemporary efforts to validate intellectually the faith once delivered to the saints."
-Dr. John Warwick Montgomery, professor-at-large, 1517: The Legacy Project, CA director, International Academy of Apologetics, Evangelism and Human Rights (Strasbourg, France) "In an age of competing worldviews, emerging technology, and scientific discovery, Christians must accept their God-given responsibility to make the case for truth. The Comprehensive Guide to Apologetics will help you master the evidence for Christian theism as it prepares you to respond to alternative worldviews."
-J. Warner Wallace, cold-case detective, senior fellow at the Colson Center for Christian Worldview, Adjunct Professor of Apologetics at Biola University, author of Cold-Case Christianity, God's Crime Scene, and Forensic Faith "One of the most comprehensive, clearly written, useful and informative books on apologetics I have read! Dr. Holden has assembled an impressive team of distinguished authors in The Comprehensive Guide to Apologetics to provide the church with the tools necessary for engaging twenty-first-century skepticism. This long-overdue volume is crucial to the next generation of missionaries and apologetic evangelists."
-Norman L. Geisler, Distinguished Professor of Theology and Apologetics, Veritas International University, CA "This handbook covers just about every question that Christians will encounter in engaging skeptics about the truth of Christianity. Comprehensive in scope, evidential in perspective, and authored by some of the most influential apologists, this anthology will prove an indispensable resource for those who would defend the faith."
-William A. Dembski, author of The Design Inference and other books on intelligent design "The Comprehensive Guide to Apologetics is a book that is sorely needed in this day when so few have undertaken the apologetic task that is so needed in the church. May our Lord be pleased to use it to his honor and glory, for never has the case for the truthfulness of our Lord and his word been so abundant in its sources and verification."
-Walter C. Kaiser Jr., President Emeritus, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary "It is a joy to commend this book which features some of the world's top apologists, addressing the most relevant apologetic issues of our time. Readers will find the book immensely helpful."
-Ron Rhodes, president, Reasoning from the Scriptures Ministries "Dr. Joseph Holden has amassed an impressive group of scholars for The Comprehensive Guide to Apologetics to affirm the truths of the Christian religion and to defend against alternative religious viewpoints. An amazing group of well-known scholars and apologists cover the majority of the areas of apologetic concerns, such as the matter of apologetic approaches, the nature and existence of God, the historical nature and reliability of the Bible, the historical truth about Jesus, and alternatives to Christianity. An added feature is a look at key apologists of the past. I highly recommend this book."
