A Man Who Told Us The Truth By Will Davis Jr.



Trying to discover where ultimate truth really begins and ends—if it even exists—can be brutal work. Getting support from someone who has struggled with the same issues is invaluable.
In A Man Who Told Us the Truth, author Will Davis Jr. wrestles with questions of truth and spiritual realities, offering a bridge between spiritually inquisitive people and the person of Jesus Christ.
Written in a language that seekers and the nonreligious will understand, this remarkable book asks the hard questions about faith and invites the reader to give Jesus a fair hearing.
With chapters such has “Let's Talk about Truth,” “The God I Want to Believe (The Truth about God),” and “False Summits (The Truth about Religion),” this powerful tool tackles difficult topics including love, death, heaven, evil, God, and the nature of truth itself.
In the vein of Mere Christianity by C. S. Lewis and Letters from a Skeptic by Greg Boyd, this book is for anyone who has ever gazed up into a star-filled sky and wondered what it all means.

This book should not be compared to C.S. Lewis by any means.
I have to be honest, I had trouble getting into this book. The first chapter did not capture my attention. In a way it drug out through the entire chapter. I found that while reading my mind would wander away from the book. There is really good information within the book. It explains how to answer questions that friends may have about our faith. It is more of a in your face type read and I have trouble with that type of writing. 
I gave this book 3.5 stars.
I was given a copy of this book by Shelton Media for my honest review.
