The Handbook of Christian Apologetics by Dr. Peter Kreeft and Ron Tacelli answers a whole host of questions posed by skeptics or even Christians seeking better understanding.
I can recommend you a ton of books on sound Catholic theology if you're interested. Just say the word and I'll post them.
If you are into theology in a big way, an excellent author is N. T. Wright. He has written numerous books, as well as lecturing in the UK and the Vatican Seminarium. His books include a three-volume set on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Other authors who are noted for their Christian books are C. S. Lewis and John R. W. Stott. I have read a number of books written by these men.

"Only love overcomes the fragmentation of human nature."
St Maximus the Confessor
"For one who loves transforms all that he loves into himself, while one who hates loses even what he has. One who loves belongs to the loved one while one who hates does not even belong to himself. "
Knowing God, by J. i. Packer; The God Who Justifies, Bt James White; and The Prodigal God, by Timothy Killer are three recent books I am reading, and all are great books.

As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly. Closing the gap between the God I want and the God who is. The same sun that melts the ice hardens the clay. Puritan saying I am doing better than I deserve. God is always bigger than our misunderstandings of Him.
