Reviews for Beyond Opinion
Good to read --- if you have a mind for it.
The book is in three parts: Part One deal with the major challenges faced by Christians and the response to those challenges. Part Two talks of internalizing the questions and answers. Part Three address living out our apologetics.
Ravi Zacharias makes it clear that this not just another book on apologetics or a book with answers to the questions people have. His goal is to equip the lay believer to able to give a reason for their belief. With this he gathers his team and crafted out this book. The chapters of Part one read like mini-thesis with thesis statements and topic statements. Which means tht this book can be read slowly at across a long peroid of time without losing track of the flow as long as you complete a chapter each time.
To be honest, I had a hard time reading the book.It can be dry and lacks imagery. In fact, I gave up on going through it in detail (ie reading it cover to cover). It is not the kind of book you would pick up and read like you would read a paperback novel. If anything, this could be the textbook for:- Christian Apologetics 101 - An introduction to Apologetics for the Layman, if such a course of study exist.
