Danny Simpson has written a post about Tim Keller’s book The Reason For God. I would encourage you to go there and read Danny’s post. I haven’t read the book yet, but according to Danny there may be some concerns. Read it here.
David Wells’ newest book by the same title has hit the bookstores. I can’t wait to get a copy. Wells is so insightful and such a good writer. Here are a few snippets.

Now pick yourself up off the floor and get the doctrinal sleep out of your eyes. Apparently Christians and Muslims share the same views on the ten commandments. You will remember that [...]
