7 Reasons to (Re)Consider Christianity ebook

If you’ve never seriously considered the claims of Christianity, you will want to read this book. I wish I had read it in my agnostic days. It is clear, credible and convincing. You won’t be disappointed.

Ben Shaw does not write this book from some theological ivory tower. He writes as a man in the midst of a life-threatening battle with cancer. I found that that fact gave every chapter such a ring of authenticity. This book is clear, well-argued, compelling, vivid and personal. I found it such a help and thoroughly commend it.

Drawing on his own experience of discovery, Ben writes with openness, humour and clarity, pointing us towards a truly stunning prospect—that Jesus Christ was God in human form and that he is worth knowing and following. This is a must-read for anyone considering if there might be more to life.

Ben Shaw writes humbly and powerfully from his own experience and is always honest, clear and engaging. This is an excellent book for anyone prepared to give the Christian faith a look—or at least open to being persuaded that it might be worth doing so.

This is Ben Shaw at his best, doing what he does best: communicating the Christian faith to those who don’t quite know what to make of it. Written for believers and doubters alike, the book is a perfect blend of contrasts: informative and moving, funny and sad, worldly-wise yet pulling no punches about the significance of the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

This is a book that connects to real people. Its chapter headings got me in. They’re all the right questions, and Ben gives compelling answers. It’s disarming, thoughtful, warm and hugely relevant.

A very personal and personable case for the open-minded to consider or reconsider the claims of Christ. It’s easy to pick up and hard to put down. Enjoy the challenge to think again.

I enjoyed this book and would highly recommend it to anyone wanting to investigate the claims of Christianity. Ben writes engagingly with honesty and humour as he sets out why the Christian faith is intellectually credible, great news and worthy of serious consideration.

What a great book to put into the hands of a person who has either never really considered Christianity or who has lost their way. I kept on thinking of people for whom the clarity and simplicity of the engaging presentation might just be what it takes to challenge their misconceptions.

What a great book. Ben doesn’t duck any thorny issues that people might have with the Bible, but tackles them head on, with refreshing honesty, humility and skill. True to Ben’s Australian roots, is a relaxed read, and his anecdotes entertain; you could definitely read this book at the beach or with a beer in hand!

I can't think of anyone more qualified than Ben Shaw to write a book on (re)considering Christianity. Ben has dedicated himself to communicating the good news of the Bible with clarity and authenticity and this book is a pinnacle on that quest. If you want to give a first, second or hundredth look at Christianity, then this book is for you.
