Outside of Van Til and Bahnsen, any recommendations on authors?
Thanks!

The best book of all is the written word of God as every answer you could possibly want is within those pages, no amount of books can replace it. I've had so many folk tell me about so many books in the past but we are only reading their opinions on whatever subject they have within them but what if those books have false teaching that's so near the truth but isn't the truth. Even one mistake can take you from the word of God and how can God help if your taking advice from other sources that aren't his. God answers prayers of a righteous man not someone who takes teaching from everyone else but God himself. I know who I'd rather trust and its God not man.Outside of Van Til and Bahnsen, any recommendations on authors?

Start the discussion with the non-believer along these lines...Yes that is true, the Word of God does have all of the answers, unfortunately when discussing the Christian Worldview with those of other faiths or of no faith at all you have to work your way there but of course along the way we want to salt our discussions with varying amounts of it that apply to the situation. The key in doing so is to do your apologetic out of love and a humble spirit (1 Peter 3:15).
For a generally confused lay person on the street like me, lol, I need simplicity.
This book was helpful to me:
Evidence that Demands a Verdict by Josh Mcdowell
It is available on amazon
What really struck me is the argument that if they were lying, surely the sheer agony of being crucified upside down for example, would bring the truth out of them if they were lying.

I can knowledgeably support this one because I have the first volume (there are 2 volumes that I know of). What I love is that it seems near-exhaustive. Hundreds of books listed that address so many questions and concerns that people are likely to bring up in discussions about the Bible. I consider it a must-have for Christian Apologetics.
