Synopses & Reviews
We all have questions about God. But very few of us get the answers were looking for-if those answers even exist!
Do they? Where (in heavens name) do you go to find out?
Eric Metaxas understands. Thats why hes written this refreshingly down-to-earth take on the big questions everyone asks (but not always out loud).
Finally a book that takes questions about God seriously enough to get silly (where appropriate). Wonderfully conversational and often very funny, this book joins you in wondering:
·How can a good God create a world that has evil and suffering?
·Is God anti-sex?
·Doesnt science make God obsolete?
·Whats the real story on miracles?
·If God is everywhere, why go to church?
·Dont we already have God within us?
·Isnt God too busy running the universe to care about the details of my day?
·What does the Bible say about things like UFOs, ESP, and the afterlife-and what about Bigfoot?
These questions (and many more like them) get straight answers that dont hide behind dull and confusing theological language. So get the lowdown on the big questions everyone asks-but please try not to laugh (because its a very serious topic).

Synopsis
Who doesn't have questions about God? But where in the world can you go to get answers? Eric Metaxas has been there, so he gets it. Which is why he's written this shockingly down-to-earth book on the big questions everyone asks (but not always out loud).
Totally conversational and sometimes flat-out hilarious, this book asks:
* How can a good God create a world that has evil and suffering?
* Is God anti-sex?
* Doesn't science make God obsolete?
* What's the real story on miracles?
* If God is everywhere, why go to church?
* Don't we already have God within us?
* Isn't God too busy running the universe to care about the details of my day?
These questions (and many more) get no-nonsense answers that don't hide behind dull theological language. So get the lowdown (and more than a few laughs) on what are probably the most important questions anyone has.
