"Very accessible, conversational, and full of stories and illustrations. This is now the best book to give to an unbelieving friend or relative."  
--__J. P. Moreland__, distinguished professor, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University; author of A Simple Guide to Miracles  
  
"In his wonderfully engaging style, Gould takes the reader on a grand expedition in search of the cosmic narrative that best explains the human experience of the world. He maps out a narrative that, unlike nontheistic alternatives, is intellectually and spiritually satisfying."  
--__Melissa Cain Travis__, distinguished fellow, Southeastern University; author of Science and the Mind of the Maker  
  
"Gould's well-crafted book points us to a God of love who appears in Jesus of Nazareth to rescue us, to unite us to our Creator, and to restore us to what we were meant to be."  
--__Paul Copan__, Pledger Family Chair of Philosophy and Ethics, Palm Beach Atlantic University; author of Loving Wisdom: A Guide to Philosophy and Christian Faith

--__Mary Jo Sharp__, assistant professor, Houston Baptist University  
  
"For many of us, Gould has been a primary voice pointing to a proper embrace of Christian faith as true, good, and beautiful. In this book, he walks with us as our guide--along with other guides, such as Ladies Nature and Philosophy, Lewis, Chesterton, Pascal, and a wonderful variety of movies, plays, and literature--leading us on the journey to see the Christian story as the greatest possible story."  
--__Travis Dickinson__, professor, Dallas Baptist University
