I love the cover of the novel because it tells more about religion. I would wish to dedicate this novel to Christian family cause it acts as a source of new faith.

As I am an atheist, I don't think I would be interested in reading this book.

Am so anxious to read these answers that the author gives concerning Christianity. So, this goes to my reading list. Thanks for your great review.

Sounds like a book entirely about religion and faith in God. I'll have to read the sample to find out if it's for me or not. Glad you enjoyed it thoroughly. Thanks for the detailed review.

I'm not into books that discuss God and Jesus, but I can see how this would benefit those that are interested in studying the Bible. Thank you for a clear, concise review.

Wow! A thought provoking review- thank you for sharing with us. I initially felt annoyed by all the scripture references, but eventually understood they were required as evidence that the author was well informed to write about the Bible.

Most of us have moments in life when we feel like lost sheep. This book sounds a hand of help for believers in questionable times. I'm intrigued to see how the author perceives God. Thank you for your review!

Although I wasn't interested in reading Christian non-fiction, the author's style convinced me to do so. His constant references to the Bible are followed by relevant explanations and realistic examples. Most importantly, his overall message is to promote faith, hope, and love and I can't think of anyting more positive than that. Thanks for a wonderful review!

I like the fact that this book is valuable as it answers questions like: is there a God, a Heaven or Hell? And why would God send his Son to die for us? It indeed holds an interesting plot.

The subject of the existence of God sounds intriguing, but I'm not really into religious books. I've tried to read a few but I don't usually complete them. Nice review though.

The author titles the book with a common phrase that many of us use. He dissects its meaning and prompts the reader to answer the age-old question of God's existence. The material is relatable and thought-provoking.

This is truly amazing. I would like to read it. Thanks for the wondeful review. It is great to see that the book is easy to read since many of them handling the same topic are normally a little bit complicated.

I would love to get the full narrative to read and review, as there are many questions relating to the existence of God and his qualities. This book will help trigger a lot of thoughts in the minds of readers.

I do not think I am interested in reading this kind of books. I think I would rather pass but would be a good book still

I feel this should be a very interesting and informative book talking about the concept of God. I would like to give it a try." Thanks for the review!
