The Reason for God: Belief in an Age of Skepticism
The Reason for God isn’t light reading—but it is essential. In a culture that questions everything, your teen needs more than vague answers and Sunday school slogans. Tim Keller, the late founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in NYC, tackles the hardest questions head-on: suffering, hell, exclusive truth claims, violence in the name of religion—you name it, he goes there.
The first half takes on objections to Christianity with logic and clarity, while the second half builds a case for belief that’s both thoughtful and theologically rich. Whether your teen is wrestling with doubt or simply trying to sharpen his thinking, this book invites him to think deeply, challenge assumptions, and engage in meaningful conversations with real-world relevance.
It’s not about having all the answers—it’s about having better ones. Your teen will encounter these questions in college classes, workplace conversations, and late-night debates with friends. Now’s the time to equip him to respond with confidence and grace.
No matter where your family falls on the faith spectrum, The Reason for God belongs on the high school reading list—ideally, before graduation.
