RL Keller in his new book, “Man's Rejection Of God book coverMan’s Rejection Of God” published by WestBow Press asks the question Who’s Responsible?

From the back cover:   Mahatma Gandhi was quoted as saying, “I like your Christ. I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.” What an indictment of the Christian community. Is it true? Are we, as Christians, the reason people keep from embracing Christianity? Have we caused people to walk away from the one belief system that can provide redemption for their sins?

In “Man’s Rejection of God: Who’s Responsible?” I devote whole chapters to atheists, agnostics, apostates, hedonists, those devoted to the cult of personality and more. I look at the three main world religions besides Judaism and Christianity. I give the reader a brief look into their belief system and how it compares to that of Christians. I touch on those who say they believe in God yet show no visible evidence of it. I investigate our being able to relate to others outside the faith. I lay out what it means to be vulnerable. I take a look at minimalism and individualism and how they can apply to the Christian. I look at the impact words have on our lives and also dig into the importance of forgiveness. I paint a simple picture of Jesus and underscore that picture with quotes from the great C.S. Lewis. I call for a time of re-assessment as we strive to be more genuine and consistent in our faith

What makes people turn away from God and whose fault is it for their resistance to “religion”?God wants everyone to turn to Him and embrace His Son so that we might live with Him in Heaven.  Great idea!  Yet there are millions that just won’t accept the offer and others that say they have yet do not act as if that is true.  In eighteen chapters Mr. Keller explores many of the different groups that are not only rejecting God but are opposed to Him as well.  Why is this topic important? It is very hard to pray as we should when we do not have the proper information with which to work.  In “Man’s Rejection Of God” we also are spotlighted as the sometimes cause of others to back away from God.  An excellent tool for salvation use.
