TESTIMONIALS

Dr. Craig and Reasonable Faith,

Thank you so much for your service to God and his kingdom!

I am a campus minister at Texas State University in San Marcos, TX and have benefited so much from your resources. I gave my life to Jesus at a young age but have never been satisfied with most of the answers I've heard over the years to some of the harder questions of the faith - especially those related to apologetics and doctrine.

I'm happy to say that since I've found Reasonable Faith (about 4 years ago) I have a place to turn to for good answers filled with both philosophical and spiritual truth. I've grown substantially in my knowledge of God and it has, in turn, led me into greater worship of God and a deeper relationship with him. I feel more secure in my own knowledge and also have solid answers for the students I encounter every week.

I just finished up the Defenders (Series 2) podcast today and really wanted to thank y'all for your work. It has been an excellent resource for helping me grow in my knowledge of God and doctrine over the last 3 years. God certainly is glorified through you!

Thank you again!

-Joshua

Dear Dr Craig

I'm sure you regularly receive emails of this nature but I do sincerely hope that if you are not the recipient of this email that someone communicates this message back to you.

I relay this story in brevity but it is deep and rich in significance.

My beautiful 19 year old son Daniel recently divulged that he was losing his faith. Moreover that he was suffering from anger and depression - a consequence of losing hope.

And so I began searching and I found Reasonable Faith on Facebook.

Daniels questions were those of which I have often asked myself. The big questions around the origin of the universe, evolution, Gods response to other religions. You can only imagine Dr Craig my desperation because I knew I didn't have the answers.

And then I found this video ... The Kalam Cosmological Argument: http://youtu.be/6CulBuMCLg0. This video totally transformed his thinking!

From there I have been sharing your videos and teachings to my Daniel.

I declare with so much joy that he has renewed his faith and hope in God!

Apologetics is so important especially for young people studying Mathematics and Science at University. I too have reinvigorated my faith from your teachings.

Thank you and God Bless You for restoring hope in my son's life and indeed my own.

To whom it may concern,

My name is Jonathan, and i've been a huge fan of Mr. Craig's talks for a few years now. I watch him on YouTube all the time, and have taken a deep inspiration from his teachings.

My brother Anthony, who studied philosophy & English literature at university is also a huge fan of Mr. Craig's. We quote his videos almost daily, and love to discuss theology with many references to his talks - our particular favourite being his debate with the late Christopher Hitchens at Biola University. I believe that Anthony referenced Mr. Craig's work in his final dissertation as well!

So here's the point, it's coming up to Christmas, and I was wondering if there's any chance that this message could be passed on to the legend himself, and for him to write just a little christmas greeting to Anthony? or if not then a little message inside the cover of one of Mr. Craig's books? I know that it would mean the world to him, as he is getting to grips with his challenging new job at a care home for adults with learning disabilities. And he would never forget it. I would pay whatever you'd require for this obviously.

I completely understand if Mr. Craig's too busy, I know he travels the world a lot of the time. But if there's any chance at all, It would make both Anthony and myself feel so incredibly blessed.

Thanks for your time,

Jonathan

A follow up email from Jonathan sent after Christmas:

Hi Alex,

I just wanted to say thank you so much for sorting the christmas card out! I don't think i've ever seen somebody appreciate a gift more than when Anthony opened that card..

As soon as he saw the signature at the bottom he just sort of froze, it was awesome. Dr. Craig and his contentions still continue to inspire us a great deal, what a legend of a man.

Thanks again,

-Jonathan

You may have heard about the student from a Liberty Univ that died in a tragic accident.

I'm just forwarding this email to share that this young man's last FB post was a quote from Dr. Craig. A profound statement for a youth to make ... but he was so touched by Dr. Craig's work and love for God that such deep reflection come easy.

Thank you for the impact you have on young lives. God bless you and your family.

" Some of you may have heard about the 21 year old Liberty University senior who was killed on a train tressel/bridge, by a train, over the weekend in Lynchburg, Va. He and his friends were taking in the breathtaking view ...(which, yes, was trespassing but is still a large draw for many. (another student was killed in 2011).

Yesterday's convocation at Liberty was powerful (they live stream them) and last night was a memorial service at Campus Church. My daughter sent this to me this morning - regarding the girl (Tori Bridges) who was on the tracks with Jon Gregoire at the time. A short-lived life ... leaving behind a long-term legacy.

The girl Tori Bridges, who was on the tracks with Jon G.,

her dad was saved bc of all of this that has happened!!!

This just happens to be Jon's last Facebook post - from Oct. 31st :

"If life ends at the grave, then we have no ultimate purpose for living." - William Lane Craig

"The fate of the sons of men and the fate of beasts is the same. As one dies so dies the other; indeed, they all have the same breath and there is no advantage for man over beast, for all is vanity. All go to the same place. All come from the dust and all return to the dust." Ecclesiastes 3:19-20
