Today, the popular idea is that Christian faith is a personal thing. But an older and bolder view claims that Christianity is not a matter of private opinion but of public truth. It claims that reason is on the side of Christianity.
This view has been on the retreat for the last century or so, as science seemed to be making God more and more an unnecessary assumption. This book argues with both wit and cogency that the tide has very definitely turned.
