". . . I live in the heart of the Bible Belt, . . . and I feel like this is
an environment in which no one questions what they've been told. And not
until I've recently started to question my faith have I felt the strength
in it that I do now. It's reassuring to know that there are a whole bunch
of believers out there who are brave enough to think. I will be watching."
". . . Josh McDowell gave me what I needed to believe the Bible is the
inspired Word of God and become a Christian six years ago. You are giving
me research and information to strengthen my faith as well as become
passionate about spreading the Gospel."
". . . A member of the ministry team observed two guys at your campus
lecture last week. At first, they acted embarrassed to see each other
there. At the end, one asked the other, 'Well, what do you think?' The
other replied, 'The guy seems to know his s---.' They agreed to buy one
book each and then swap when they finished reading. May God use those books
in their lives and the lives of many others. . . ."
"A friend mentioned your web site and suggested I check it out. He had no
clue what an impact it would have on my heart. . . . I am writing to say
thanks for the work you've done. As a new Christian of about three years, I
am filled with questions about creation and the beginning of our universe.
I asked my Bible study leader if reading and searching for scientific
answers about the cosmos was taking me on a path further from God. He said,
'No, by all means, do your investigation and satisfy your questions. I have
faith that you will not stray from the Creator but will find that He is at
the center of it all.'
"While my need for integrity in all areas of my life requires that I accept
the overwhelming evidence for evolution, I appreciate a person such as
yourself who is honestly trying to reconcile his religious faith with the
scientific evidence. My opinion of most self-proclaimed creationists is
rather low; far too often, they allow their religious preconceptions to
cloud their intellectual judgment, something I personally find
repugnant—and, in a very real sense, blasphemous. . . . I am hopeful that
someday your more even-handed approach to the issue of origins will become
the mainstream attitude among the Christian community."
". . . I was a young man who had no religious upbringing. I was
anti-Christian, into Satanic music, a member of a skinhead group, and
heavily into drugs. Finally I fell into a deep depression and mentally
began exploring, ‘what if there was no God?’ and what that meant to me. I
became frightened and obsessed with proving the existence of God—reading,
looking, talking to people. I finally sought professional help, a Christian
counselor. I had a girl friend who was a Christian, and I GOT BETTER, BUT
NEVER REALLY HAD MY ANSWERS!
