Exploring topics such as "Who Is Jesus?", "How Does a Person Get Close to God?", and "Are Purpose Driven and Reason Driven Always at Odds?", Zacharias tackles head-on the question of why so many people today have given up on faith. In the end, he asks whether it is God or whether it is the church - as God's representative - who has failed. And, more dramatically, he asks if the irrational ends of the skeptic's view of a world without God place at risk the very existence of humanity.
Zacharias writes for anyone who has left the church literally or emotionally, who lives with silent doubts and who struggles with the simplistic "Jesus is the answer" when suffocated with daunting questions.
