At church on Sunday they gave an almighty plug for Life to the Full through an interview with Alex and Johann.  One of the things Alex mentioned was that she was nervous on the first night of Life to the Full.  Questions run around your head like:

What will my friends think? Will they think I’m a looney tune for believing this? Is this going to be any good? Will Sam totally mess up further opportunities to share the gospel by being a complete git?  What will I say?  Will I know what to say about Jesus? How will I argue for God and at the same time hear their concerns and respect their opinions?

These are all great questions.  Some of the variables are completely out of your control but you can prepare yourself for Life to the Full and I think one of the best books I have read to that end is Naked God: The truth about God exposed by Martin Ayers.

Martin’s book is good one to read for 3 reasons.

1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. It is very accessible.  Lots of apologetic style books are very complicated, long winded and difficult to get your head around. Martin is comprehensive, clear and concise.  A rare find.  As John Dickson says:  ”I was amazed, actually, how such a short book could feel so comprehensive.”
               2. It is comprehensive.  Martin covers a lot of material.  Whilst more reading could be done on all of the sections he writes about on the book in the Naked God we find a concise and clear distillation of many of those ideas.
               3. In his book he covers much of the same material that we look at in Life to the Full.
