God’s undertaker - 15 June 2009 |
|
Too many reviews describe books as ‘vital reading’ – obviously an overstatement, because we get along perfectly fine without almost all of them.
But just occasionally a truly remarkable book appears. To my mind, John C. Lennox’s God’s Undertaker falls into that category.
A long time ago I used to be a scientist. Yeah, a long time ago. But, still, I quite often get asked to speak on ‘Science and Christianity’ and similar subjects, so I’ve read a fair bit on the subject. This one is something really special. Every chapter manages to say something new, and existing arguments are re-stated with greater clarity and cogency than I’ve ever seen before. With this book, John Lennox stomps into the heavyweight division of this rather tired old debate and flattens the opposition.
Any scientifically-minder Christian who doesn’t read this book is missing out. Any unbelieving scientist who hasn’t read it can safely be ignored.
