TESTIMONIALS

Thank you Dr. Craig. I have just completed my 1st year theology degree and as always your material and insight helps me tremendously. It allows me to really involve myself not just in the scriptural literary meaning, but also the exegesis and background thoughts behind each question posed. Thank you so much for your immense knowledge on subjects that have really opened both my mind and heart to the kingdom.

Thank you so much for what you do! The other day, I decided to re-dedicate my life to my Christian faith. I have always been Catholic but I felt like I needed to re-focus on faith as the center of my life. In addition to prayer and reading Bible Verses daily, I was researching the best Theologians and looked at some abbriveated writings of St Augustine and St Thomas Aquinas, but I wanted to keep up with a modern Theologian as well. I had known about you from somewhere previously so I took a look at your articles and am excited to keep up with them as a key aspect in the growth of my faith. Thank you so much for what you do! God Bless you!

I became a Christian in my mid twenties. 1997 was the year. I read my bible but must admit my faith was more of an emotional experience and I wasn't loving God with my mind. About 4 years ago life dealt me several difficult blows over the span of just a few months. Loss of job, Health issue, loss of my father, and mental health issues with my teenage daughter and personal bankruptcy all in that span. Since my faith was an emotional exercise I thought God must be angry with me. I quickly found myself listening to podcasts by people that were less than friendly to Christianity. It became easier to believe God did not exist than he did and that he was mad at me. At that point I was more like an agnostic. I started listening to Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, and Christopher Hitchens. I was compelled by their emotional arguments about suffering. Then I watched a video of you debating Sam Harris thinking he was going to win handily. The arguments you used and the fact he had no real answer for them was a turning point for me. Right after that I saw John Lennox debate Richard Dawkins and Dawkins seemed foolish in his arguments. Over the last 3 years I have listened to you and many other apologists and have began to love God with my mind. My faith has never been stronger. I thank you for being one of many people the Good Shepard used to bring me back. 

yours in Christ

Dear Dr.Craig, I am a second-year international undergraduate studying Philosophy. I have no enquiries or questions, I simply want to say that your work/contribution on 'God', particularly with regard to the "Cosmological Argument", is both outstanding and compelling. In addition to reading your work, I have listened to a number of your podcasts (debates, lectures etc.) and have found them to be deeply insightful. Just as you wrote to your parents: "who taught you as a boy the adventure of learning and spared you nothing that might further that end", likewise, my parents encouraged influenced me in the same way. Thank you. I am not only rooting for You and Reasonable Faith but also keep you in my prayers regularly. Sincerely.

I'm a Christian from Vietnam. First of all, I must say how grateful I am to you, your works (debates, lectures, books, reasonablefaith.org, etc.) have been one of the greatest treasures I have discovered in my life since being a Christian.

About 4 years ago, I came to know you through a lecture of Mr Kem Ham, and since then my faith had been shifted toward a new journey, where I can more engage my mind with my faith, I have been trying to study as much as possible by reading and listening to your materials (I have plenty of your books, from big and small ones (Philosophical Foundation for a Christian Worldview, Blackwell companion to Natural Theology, Reasonable Faith,...) and many other materials from other scholars that you usually mention in your writings and speeches (Alvin Plantinga, N.T Wright, Robin Collins, Richard Bauckham,...). I would say that it is very hard to have these books in Vietnam (your books are denied by shipping agencies in Vietnam due to religious content), but thankfully, I met an American missionary, he often flies back and forth between the US and Vietnam to do his mission work, he is doing his two doctorate degrees at Dallas and Denver Theological Seminaries and he happily brings me books from the US. One of the best things of reading your books is that I have to inform myself with knowledge of many things from theology, philosophy, science and history. You just cannot imagine how I was before and how I am now. Thank you for pouring your heart, mind and soul out to the Lord Jesus Christ.
