Book Review - The Logic of God


ABOUT THE BOOK:

Jesus Christ alone answers our deepest questions.

We all have doubts that challenge our faith. We wonder whether the Bible still matters, or whether God is truly as loving and personal as we hope. In his first ever devotional, The Logic of God, apologist Ravi Zacharias offers 52 readings that explain how and why Christianity, the Bible, and God are still relevant, vital, and life-changing for us today. To all our dilemmas Ravi says, "I am convinced that Jesus Christ alone uniquely answers the deepest questions of our hearts and minds."

With a remarkable grasp of biblical facts and a deep understanding of the questions that trouble our hearts, Ravi tackles the most difficult topics with ease and understanding. But The Logic of God is more than intellectual; it is also personal, offering thoughtful wisdom on:

when Jesus draws especially near you.
the deep ray of hope found in God's Word.
how God transforms disappointments.
why prayer matters.
how genuine peace is possible.
making sense of suffering.
Ravi makes profound biblical truth easy to understand. And if your life is busy, this book is designed for you! It addresses 52 topics that you can read over the course of one year or slowly digest at your own pace. Each entry includes a Scripture, questions for reflection, and some practical application steps.

When you're struggling with questions and doubts, confused, curious, or just want a clearer way to express your faith The Logic of God has answers that satisfy the heart and the mind.

MY REVIEW:

Ravi Zacharias is one of my favorite Bible teachers because he shares Biblical truth with common sense and reason. He writes beautifully and clearly so that we can truly understand the Scriptural teachings that he shares.

This book is beautiful, with heavy slick pages. I can tell a lot of thought was put into not only the content but the visual aspect of this book. It's a pleasure to hold and read.

There are 52 readings which could either be read as a daily devotional or a weekly devotional. I recommend the weekly reading as there is a lot to glean from his teachings and this would give you the time to do so.  At the beginning of each devotion, there is a topic followed by an appropriate Scripture. Then there is a teaching on this that are approximately 2-3 pages. Finally, there are questions to ponder and answer as part of what you just read. I enjoyed this as it helped me to put into my own words what I learned so I could really remember it.

This is a wonderful book that takes you deeply into Scripture without talking over your head. If you've heard Ravi speak, he writes in the same way - engaging us with his words and Biblical Scripture. I highly recommend this book! 5 stars.
