"A unique opportunity to wander into life's deepest questions"

Philosopher Paul Gould guides us on a journey to discover the true story of the world and our own place in it, showing that Christianity holds the most satisfying answers to life's biggest questions.

"Very accessible, conversational, and full of stories and illustrations. This is now the best book to give to an unbelieving friend or relative."
--J. P. Moreland, distinguished professor, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University; author of A Simple Guide to Miracles

"In his wonderfully engaging style, Gould takes the reader on a grand expedition in search of the cosmic narrative that best explains the human experience of the world. He maps out a narrative that, unlike nontheistic alternatives, is intellectually and spiritually satisfying."
--Melissa Cain Travis, distinguished fellow, Southeastern University; author of Science and the Mind of the Maker

"Gould's well-crafted book points us to a God of love who appears in Jesus of Nazareth to rescue us, to unite us to our Creator, and to restore us to what we were meant to be."
--Paul Copan, Pledger Family Chair of Philosophy and Ethics, Palm Beach Atlantic University; author of Loving Wisdom: A Guide to Philosophy and Christian Faith

"Gould's narrative-driven exploration provides a unique opportunity to wander into life's deepest questions. An accessible, relatable, and humorous quest to discover our personal story in and through the story of the world."
--Mary Jo Sharp, assistant professor, Houston Baptist University

"For many of us, Gould has been a primary voice pointing to a proper embrace of Christian faith as true, good, and beautiful. In this book, he walks with us as our guide--along with other guides, such as Ladies Nature and Philosophy, Lewis, Chesterton, Pascal, and a wonderful variety of movies, plays, and literature--leading us on the journey to see the Christian story as the greatest possible story."
--Travis Dickinson, professor, Dallas Baptist University
