TESTIMONIALS
I would first like to say how appreciative I am of your work. I am a recently married Army officer towards the end of my third deployment currently serving in Northern Iraq. Since becoming a Christian at age 15 I've always had a heart for the lost and loved apologetic resources as this was the means to which I found faith. Out here in the desert I have read the Third Edition of Reasonable Faith as well as discovered your pod cast ( Defenders and Reasonable Faith), both have been a real blessing in my life. I listen to them over and over again, I take notes in my free time and I must admit that the once pristine copy of Reasonable Faith is highlighted and sticky noted up beyond recognition now. I say all this just to express how grateful I am. This deployment has been more taxing on me than usual and discovering these resources was definitely part of God's plan, you have shined a light in a dark place and I only hope that someday I might be able to help someone as much as you've helped me.

Hi, my name is Mitchell. I am a 17yo from Brisbane, Australia. Wasn’t sure exactly how to contact Dr. Crag but this is where I found myself. I would just like to thank him for everything he has done and continues to do. On Guard is THE best book I’ve ever purchased. I also bought Reasonable Faith and downloaded every podcast he has. I am now able to confidently debate my atheist friends and evangelize to others wherever I am. Often when I go to parties I often find myself debating or just answering questions from non-believers around me. I am trying to be a light in an otherwise dark place and would not be equipped to do it without his help. Thank-you Dr. Craig!!! Be blessed!

Thank you so much for the time and effort you put in to bringing rationality back into Christian culture and bringing Christ back into academic culture. I had heard so many negative things about philosophy over my life; Christians appeared to shy away in fear of what answers might be brought up by this mysterious subject, so dominated by atheists. So to hear, in 2004, about a Christian philosopher (an oxymoron, I thought) who was visiting Manchester University to explain how "life without God is absurd", despite being a Christian, I was a little skeptical (sorry). By the end of the talk, however, I was blown away! I had never heard anyone provide evidence, other than that of Christ, for God's existence, let alone several discrete arguments (my favourite was the moral argument - so neat!). I am now an avid listener to your Defenders podcast, reader of your Question of the Week, viewer of your debates and I'm working my way through a number of your books. I also hope to embark on a MA in Philosophy next year. Thanks for inspiring me.

Wow! I must say, I think that the ministry and revolution, that I think you are leading, is much needed in our society. I took an intro to philosophy class at my college a year ago, and ever since I have been studying it all the time. It wasn’t too long after that, I stumbled upon one of your videos on youtube, and I have been following them ever since hah. I have been studying the Ontological Argument and the Moral Argument for the past 6 months, and have been able to talk to about 20-30 people about them (Atheist, Naturalist, Agnostic and Christian alike). I’m also a part of a breakdancing website where I have quoted some of your arguments and expanded on other areas of our faith to talk to different Atheists and Agnostics about them. I pray almost everyday that I may reach people through the intellectual side of our faith, that so many Christians ignore or never even realize is there.

I came to know about you thanks to an atheist, ha, ha. I was once reading post from an atheist friend on Facebook. In that post written by himself he described you as "el cuco de los ateos" (something like a boogeyman for the atheists). So I started to look for information about this person which an atheist considers someone to fear. I noted the name William Lane Craig. I started to watch Youtube videos about you on debates for God existence, videos about how you refute and totally disarticulate arguments from very well known atheists like Dawkins, Hitchens and Atkins. So, thanks to that atheist friend I came to know that there are intelligent people like me that defend faith and God. As for today I have purchased books from you like: Reasonable Faith, Hard Questions Real Answers and On Guard. I got them for my iPad Kindle and iBook apps so keep the electronic versions coming. I'm planning on getting a few more like "The Case for Christ" from Lee Strobel. Also I have downloaded the Reasonable Faith and Defenders podcasts for my iPhone. Thanks to you a new faith and God defender is growing.
