Synopsis
Journalist and spiritual seeker Philip Yancey has always struggled with the most basic questions of the Christian faith. The question he tackles in What Good Is God? concerns the practical value of belief in God. His search for the answer to this question took him to some amazing settings around the world: Mumbai, India when the firing started during the terrorist attacks; at the motel where Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated; on the Virginia Tech campus soon after the massacre; an AA convention; and even to a conference for women in prostitution. At each of the ten places he visited, his preparation for the visit and exactly what he said to the people he met each provided evidence that faith really does work when what we believe is severely tested. What Good Is God? tells the story of Philip's journey -- the background, the preparation, the presentations themselves. Here is a story of grace for armchair travelers, spiritual seekers, and those in desperate need of assurance that their faith really matters.

    good stories of God's goodness

    This is neither a theology text nor a philosophy textbook. It is a storybook. It is a collective of essays, articles, and speeches centered around the topic of faith. Yancey is, of course, a prolific author. He is a good writer and knows how to tell stories. He instinctively knows what questions to ask and when to let a story's meaning stand for itself. He has an artistic way with words that makes this collective both interesting and encouraging. However, it might have been helpful if at least some of the stories had gone a bit deeper, especially the one on noneother than C.S. Lewis. This chapter was merely biographical, so presented nothing new. Though Yancey's ability to find God in the midst of dire circumstances is laudible, scripturally and philosophically he could have ...
