During the last two decades there has been a renaissance in the field of Christian philosophy. Unfortunately, most of this excellent work has not reached general readers. Reason for the Hope Within was produced specifically to make available the best of contemporary Christian philosophy in a clear, accessible--and highly relevant--manner.

Fourteen of America's rising Christian philosophers cover many of the traditional themes of Christian apologetics as well as topics of special relevance to today's world:

  • the problem of evil
  • the possibility of miracles
  • the existence of heaven and hell
  • Eastern religions
  • Religion and science
  • Christianity and ethics

Reason for the Hope Within provides readers with the most up-to-date resources for thinking about and defending the Christian faith.
