Instead of sidestepping the questions of Creation and the existence of God, this book embraces these questions and analytically considers the options in an easy-to-understand format that can be appreciated by everyone. I believe that this approach serves well to invite the person with rational doubts in finding comfort through a rational understanding of the possibilities. It's a compelling read that allows the reader to make a better decision as to what is truly believable. This analytical approach offered a refreshing and unpressured read and opened my mind and heart with a perspective and understanding for which I am most grateful.

A Heart for God is exceptionally well written and thoroughly researched. It is easy to read and a great tool to discern answers to questions we all have. It is laid out in perfect sequence for Seekers who want to know more about God and provides a path for a new Christian to grow in their faith. Growing Christians will also find it a wonderful resource. I recommend everyone read it as it is exceptionally well done.

Few have a heart for God as my friend Vicki Gordy. All who know Vicki know she offers this book as an invitation to explore biblical faith and discover, as she did, that it is strong enough to hold through life's storms, and gentle enough to satisfy every heart. Her careful research, verified by some of today's top scholars, shows that the Christian faith is reasonable and true. This is a book I highly recommend.

I enjoyed the book thoroughly and it answered many questions that I have asked internally before, but never pursued the questions openly. It has helped me be more confident and comfortable in speaking boldly for Christ.

I found this book to be both heartwarming and exceptional. I like how the author uses and incorporates the different pathways in bringing the reader to a better appreciation and understanding of our faith. The book also purports a serious investigation into deep concepts that are common to us all and at the same time challenges the reader to do his or her own soul searching. And Gordy not only presents the material in a very clear, precise and pragmatic format but also in a warm and friendly manner.

A Heart for God is a wonderful book for everyone whether you're curious about Christianity's truth claims and teachings or you're a Christian who wants to grow in your understanding of what you believe and why. Vicki's sincere desire to demonstrate why Christ is trustworthy is evident on every page. She combines her own story about why she became a Christian with rigorous scholarship and plausible answers to questions commonly asked about Christianity. Her writing is accessible to everyone from those familiar with the apologetics content in the book or just encountering it for the first time. A Heart for God includes some of the best reasons to believe that Christianity is true, but Vicki doesn't just speak to the mind. She engages the mind and heart, inviting readers to accept God's invitation to reconciliation with Him through Christ.

As I began to read Vicki's book, I felt she was speaking to me and not at me. I read A Heart for God over a weekend and again the next week. This book of testimony and apologetics fits smoothly between the introductory thoughts in More Than a Carpenter and the complexity of Evidence that Demands a Verdict. Vicki shows great skill, patience, and depth of research in writing this book. I have ordered a large supply to share with my friends and disciples.
