Book Description, Modified from Goodreads:
In his first ever devotional, apologist Ravi Zacharias offers 52 readings that explain how and why Christianity, the Bible, and God are still relevant, vital, and life-changing for us today. To all our dilemmas Ravi says, "I am convinced that Jesus Christ alone uniquely answers the deepest questions of our hearts and minds." With a deep understanding of the questions that trouble our hearts, Ravi makes profound biblical truth easy to understand. And if your life is busy, this book is designed for you! It addresses 52 topics that you can read over the course of one year or slowly digest at your own pace. Each entry includes a Scripture, questions for reflection, and some practical application steps.


My Review:
The Logic of God is a 52 day devotional. The author suggested that you read one entry each week, but you can use it as a daily devotional. Each entry started with a verse followed by 2-4 pages of commentary and ended with 4 questions (2 about the text and 2 about applying the lesson to your life). The book was about what's important to God and why belief in God is reasonable. The title is a bit misleading as the focus wasn't really on logic. There were some arguments defending the Christian faith, but even then it's more focused on thinking about the person asking the question than the questions themselves. It was aimed at those who already believe rather than being something you'd hand to a non-Christian. The author talked about events he attended or that happened in his life as a way to illustrate or make a point. Overall, I'd recommend this devotional to those who want some substance in a short devotional format.


If you've read this book, what do you think about it? I'd be honored if you wrote your own opinion of the book in the comments.
