Don't Check Your Brains at the Door


by Josh McDowell & Bob Hostetler
1992, 2011

If you’re interested in Christian apologetics, but don’t have the energy for a major brain work-out, Don’t Check Your Brains At The Door is the book for you.
Written for teens, this book offers short, easy to read chapters that respond to some of the major   
criticisms people have against the Bible and Christianity.

It also delves into many of the ideas about life and self that are rampant in today’s culture.


So what topics are addressed? Here are a few examples:

Is the Bible accurate?
Is God real and personal?
Is Jesus the Son of God?
Is the Resurrection real?
Is there truth?
Is money necessary for true happiness?
Is it all about me?
Is premarital sex okay?


This book was a really great read from start to finish and I was both entertained and educated. 
I am sure an "adult version" would contain a lot more apologetic detail, but frankly this book was just enough for my brain power. 

I also really appreciated the book's layout as it is possible to read topically or from cover to cover.

Sigh, 
So much good information, I just wish I could remember it all.



Reading on…
