I had an atheist at my forum tell me that Lee Strobel was biased and only wanted to make a buck. I didn't buy it. Strobel used to be an atheist who set out to answer his own questions about Christianity (he is a seasoned journalist) and ended up converting. He asks all the tough questions we all hear to many educated experts and they answer those questions. Happy reading!

If we pray with sincerity and ask God for his guidance and understanding...and then we listen, and above all we trust that he will answer us, or that he already has answered us...I promise you'll be closer to the understanding that you seek. |

Word of advice to everyone: Don't ask God if it's in His will for you to write a book unless you're prepared for the overwhelming excitement, almost "in love" feeling as an answer.
LOL.

I actually like them a lot. I like the clouds/blue sky best. If I were you I'd make THAT the background for the front and back cover. The sunset on the beach is gorgeous, but it reminds me of romance, which I don't think your book is about. ![]() So how is the book itself coming along? |
