Official Review: Would You Believe? by K. Scott Wells
Would You Believe?, by K. Scott Wells, is on Christian apologetics. It contains information that proves that God exists and Jesus is his "everlasting Son." In addition, it shows how the Bible is God's infallible Word. Whether you are seeking the truth about God or trying to strengthen your faith, Wells provides enough evidence that will make you believe that there's an almighty father. According to him, this book is also for atheists, agnostics, and believers who doubt the accuracy of the Holy Scriptures.
In this book, Wells examines evolution, the laws of logic and nature, the Bible, the scribes, eyewitness accounts, scientific facts, historical prophecies, assumed contradictions in the Bible, who is Jesus according to different faiths and so on. Besides, he tells about the Christian gospel of salvation and its benefits. He gives some important steps to develop a relationship with God and grow as his child. Providing strong arguments, he shows that humans have a heavenly father, whom they can enjoy an awesome and everlasting relationship with.
Would You Believe? is well written and intriguing. Consisting of 112 pages, it's a quick and enjoyable read, filled with uplifting information. Having some inspiring personal stories, it's very comprehensible. I like the author's easy and conversational writing style. Using thought-provoking questions, he presents his views in a smooth manner. Again, he uses a lot of Bible verses to get his message across. Though, for me, that element makes his points valid, readers who don't like books comprising religious texts may not want to read this one. Being a Christian, I enjoyed reading it; it has equipped me with more ways to get closer to God.
Furthermore, there's nothing I dislike about the book. What I like most about it is the convincing way the author refuted the claims concerning contradictions in the Good Book. He wanted to put his views in writing, and he succeeded in doing it effectively. Being a Christian publication, it has no swear words or narratives relating to sex.
In conclusion, I rate Would You Believe? 4 out of 4 stars. I couldn't rate it lower because it's well structured and edifying. The author explains his points in a catchy way. Moreover, it was professionally edited. There are no grammar errors or typos, but I noticed inconsistency in the use of punctuation after some Bible verses, which I saw as a stylistic preference. I recommend the book to anyone who has doubts about the existence of God, Jesus being the only savior of the world, or the authenticity of the Bible.
