Is Jesus God? Does God even exist? When Eric Hansen and Maria Menklin clash over some of Christianity’s most compelling theological questions, sparks fly. This oratory adventure between two university students and their professor of divinity will have you rethinking everything you thought you knew about following in Jesus’ footsteps. Reading this first book in The Apology Trilogy may kindle an empathy for Christians on either side of the fence and move you to pick up your Bible again and dust it off.

Author Richard Calkins carefully weaves the tale of Eric and Maria’s banter as they navigate through scriptural teachings, including Jesus's Sermon on the Mount, and commonly-held interpretations. Presenting both sides of each argument, Calkins builds the case as a lawyer would in court and leaves the reader to decide where truth lies.

Do you wonder why there are so many different Christian denominations? Do you wonder if people are reading from the same Bible? Join Eric, Maria and the don on their quest for authentic answers to life’s burning questions.
