Does the God of Christianity Exist, and What Difference Does It Make?

Stan Guthrie moderates a Christian Book Expo panel with Lee Strobel, William Lane Craig, Douglas Wilson, Christopher Hitchens, and Jim Denison.

The New Atheists usually make two charges against Christianity: (1) that it is untrue and (2) that it is harmful. A panel of apologetics experts responds to an atheist critic with evidence from Scripture, science, and history about why the faith is both reasonable and good for the world. Christianity Today‘s Stan Guthrie moderated this panel on March 21, 2009 for the Christian Book Expo in Dallas.

Panelists:

•Lee Strobel, The Case for the Real Jesus, The Case for a Creator (Zondervan)

•William Lane Craig, Reasonable Faith (Crossway)

•Douglas Wilson, Is Christianity Good for the World? (Canon Press)

•Christopher Hitchens, Is Christianity Good for the World? (Canon Press) and God Is Not Great (Twelve Books)

•Jim Denison, Wrestling with God (Tyndale)
