	*''The Reason for God'' by Timothy Keller - Keller has compiled a list of the most frequently voiced “doubts” that skeptics bring to his church as well as the most important reasons for faith. He addresses each doubt and explains each reason using literature, philosophy, real-life conversations, and reasoning to explain how faith in a Christian God is a soundly rational belief, held by thoughtful people of intellectual integrity with a deep compassion for those who truly want to know the truth.		*''The Reason for God'' by Timothy Keller - Keller has compiled a list of the most frequently voiced “doubts” that skeptics bring to his church as well as the most important reasons for faith.

	*''Systematic Theology: An Introduction to Biblical Doctrine'' by Wayne A. Grudem. Theology is a dirty word in the message but simply means the study of God. Systematic theology is the study of doctrine organized around fairly standard categories such as the Word of God, redemption, and Jesus Christ. This introduction to systematic theology has a strong emphasis on the scriptural basis for each doctrine and teaching; clear writing, with technical terms kept to a minimum; a contemporary approach, treating subjects of special interest to the church today; a friendly tone, appealing to the emotions and the spirit as well as the intellect; and frequent application to life. If you want to get rid of your message theological baggage, this is a good place to start. Lectures by Wayne Grudem to accompany the book are available on [https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/wayne-grudems-systematic-theology/id322844869?mt=2 iTunes]		*''Systematic Theology: An Introduction to Biblical Doctrine'' by Wayne A.
