Recommended Resources

I’ve put this list of resources together with the aim of helping people investigate the Christian faith. This is a list that covers a wide range of issues from the accuracy of the Bible to the evidence for God and the resurrection of Jesus. People in their late teens and onwards should be able to find information that they can understand from the following websites/resources. (Although the Tektonics and Creation Ministries Internation websites do have some fairly technical articles on their websites and also note that Strobel has written editions of some of his titles in a style aimed at students).

Free Stuff

Here is a list of my favourite websites where you can get information for free.

Bible Gateway is a website where you can read the entire Bible online for free. They have a selection of English translations as well as many in foreign languages. If you are a new to Christianity or still in high school then I recommend the New International or the New Living Translations
See, Why should I read the Bible?

Lee Strobel has a website with free videos on topics that are similar to his books (see below)
 
Creation Ministries International have a website that has articles on topics relating to science and the Bible. I highly recommend this website, see their ‘info’ menu which has a link to their FAQ pages or use the search option.
 
The Tektonics website has some in depth articles that show that the Bible can be trusted.

The Jesus movie is a movie about the life of Jesus and you can watch it online for free.

I highly recommend doing the Alpha Course at least once.

Your local Church; if have not yet found a church then please consider finding one.

Recommended Books

The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel looks at the historical evidence for Jesus, his death and his resurrection.

The Case for Faith by Lee Strobel looks at some of the harder questions that Christians might struggle with such as why is there pain and suffering.

The Case For Creator by Lee Strobel looks at the evidence for design that we see all around us. While I disagree Strobel's opinion that the universe is billions of years old  (type 'age of the universe' in the search box at the CMI website), I would still recommend this book because it presents strong arguements in a style that is easy to understand.

The book Refuting Evolution by Jonathon Sarfati was writen as a response to arguments that skeptics have used against Creationists and shows several reasons why the skeptics case is far from convincing.

The book Refuting Evolution II by Jonathon Sarfati covers a wider range of arguments in more detail than Refuting Evolution.

Recommended DVDs

The Passion Of The Christ, hardley needs and introduction but I think it is one movie that everyone should see at least once.

The DVD From a Frog To a Prince shows why evolution can not explain how the complex information in our DNA got there in the frist place.

Unlocking the Mystery of Life is a DVD put out by the Discovery Institute and it looks and the evidence for design.
