Searching for Truth

People today desperately want to know what is true and authentic in a world increasingly characterized by cultural confusion and a loss of trust in established institutions. 

Are the answers to life found in the writings of secular scientists who tell us that we’re simply a product of chance – an accidental mixture of elements in one stage of development, no more important in the long range scheme of things than a rock, or a sea urchin? 

 Are the answers found in the philosophical musings of Eastern mystics who explain that we’re a very small part of an all-pervasive life force that in the end draws us into itself so that we lose our individuality and become nothing? 

Are we unique individuals created by an all-powerful Creator who has a purpose for each person?  But, if so, why is there so much pain and suffering in what should be a perfect world?

What Do You Think? 

As a Christian working in the media industry in the Boston and New York City metropolitan areas for over 40 years, I’ve had many meaningful conversations with actors, producers, directors, engineers, studio owners and many others about whether or not God is real and the Bible is true.

Some told me they clearly didn’t believe in God, thought the Bible was filled with fairy tales and wondered how I could possibly think that a Supreme Being did, in fact, exist.

Others weren’t sure. They thought there might be a God, but had never heard any clear arguments supporting that belief from what they were taught in school, what they saw or heard in museums and on TV or in conversations with friends and peers.  

Still others considered themselves believers, but had honest questions that about their faith, and especially why a good God would allow so much pain and suffering to exist in the world.

Often during those conversations, I wished I had a relatively short, easy-to-read book that I could give them that would provide honest answers to honest questions. Not finding any that I liked, I decided to write one.  

Thoughtful Answers to Thoughtful Questions

Searching for Truth in Vegas, Hollywood & Bethlehem . . . The Quest to Discover if God is Real addresses many of the questions thoughtful people often ask about the nature of God, the nature of life, and the validity of Biblical Christianity. 

For example: 

Is there a God?  What about evolution?  How about Eastern mysticism?  Is the Bible really God's Word?  How close is the Bible of today to the original Bible?  How does it differ from other great works of religious literature?  Did Jesus really rise from the dead?  If God is good and sovereign, why is there excessive pain and suffering in the world? 

John Warwick Montgomery, a lawyer, professor, theologian and author who has eleven earned degrees, including doctorates in philosophy, theology and law, has commented,

“Your MS is an excellent popular case for biblical faith.  It is carefully researched, very well written, and stylistically attractive.”

Searching for Truth in Vegas, Hollywood & Bethlehem is available in paperback, as an eBook and as an audiobook on Amazon.com

It provides honest answers to honest questions.  I hope you’ll enjoy reading it.  God bless.
