How Reason Can Lead to God: A Philosopher's Bridge to Faith

By Joshua Rasmussen

Book Overview

Do you seek the truth?Do you value reason, science, and independent thinking? Are you skeptical of beliefs that people maintain merely "on faith," yet you remain interested in the big questions of life? Do you hope there could be a greater purpose to the universe, if only that were realistic?If so, then philosopher Joshua Rasmussen can encourage you in your journey. Beginning with his own story of losing faith and the belief in any ultimate purpose in life, he then builds a bridge to a series of universal truths about ultimate reality. Using only the instruments of reason and common experience, Rasmussen constructs a pathway--step by step, brick by brick--that he argues can lead to meaning and, ultimately, a vision of God.

Customer Reviews

I enjoy this author.

This is a very good book. I plan on reading it again. I’m just now getting serious about the philosophy of religion so I don’t have a lot of philosophical training, however this book breaks things down pretty well. This book has really challenged me to think deeper about the existence of God and necessary existence.
