Summary
We are unavoidably hope-based creatures. Imagine two women given the same boring task to do eight hours a day in the same conditions - but you tell one woman she will be paid £15,000 for a year of this work, and you tell the other that she will be paid £15 million. Each woman in identical circumstances will be experiencing those circumstances in completely different ways, because what we believe about the future determines how we live in the present.
In this dynamic new audiobook, New York pastor and best-selling author Tim Keller explores the biblical understanding of hope. A profound grasp of what we are hopeful for, he argues, can reenergise and transform us personally; can help us face death; can influence our community practices with regard to sex, money and power; and can even be applied globally to renew our culture.

thought provoking, soul searching stuff!
Takes a close look at today's secular thinking and argues in a balanced way for the Christian worldview.

Through this book I found God
I read this book merely out of interest in some of the arguments in favour of a creator. I ended up finding God.
I don't agree with everything in the book, and I could argue against some of the assertions, but it set me on the path.

I wish I had read this year's ago
I wish I had read this book 35 years ago. Many of my secular friends will be receiving an invitation to read it.

A fantastic starting point for people.
Absolutely loved Timothy Keller's 'Making Sense of God'. Intellectually stimulating and well written, this is a great book to read if you're looking to understand more about the Christian faith and why it's perfectly reasonable to believe in God.

Clear, concise and reasonable
Loved the clear, thought through explanations of the reasonableness of Christian faith and the philosophical background along with it.

To explore Christianity, start here
This book is an extraordinary bridgehead into the topic of Christian faith. I am a secularist which has seen the limits of agnostic, intellectual reasoning. I feel there's something missing. I came to this book to see "the other side", to see what faith is all about. The book kept me glued to it untill the end, because of the depth of knowledge expressed and because of the excellent recital by Sean Pratt. So far, Sean's reading and intonation has been the best I've heard on Audible, by far.
Listen to this book. It might help you find your faith or it might leave you indifferent. Regardless of where you end up, you would have gained excellent knowledge of how human reasoning and spirit manifest.
Best thoughts to you!

Among the most important books you could ever read
This book has not only helped me to understand myself and the nature of the world, but it has also given me the answer I've been looking all my life (even when I didn't know I was looking for it). If you landed on this page is probably because you are looking for this too. Don't hesitate, this book will open your mind in ways all psychology, philosophy and the modern world promises but can't deliver...

What you need to know.
Answering huge questions in a listener friendly way. Passed onto an atheist friend who then had some faith misconceptions addressed.
