What happens when a world-class philosopher like J. P. Moreland turns his mind and vast life experience to the most profound questions we all face? We get a spiritual earthquake capable of moving people at the deepest levels. This book satisfies both the mind and the heart in ways that self-help or New Age books never could. Deepak Chopra, Marianne Williamson, Wayne Dyer, Eckhart Tolle, and the rest of the popular gurus of the media need to read this book to see where the deepest satisfaction, happiness, and joy can really be found.</p>--Craig J. Hazen, Biola University<br><br><p>You can seek and find happiness. But unless you have the Author of true happiness as your guide, you won't be able to tell the real thing from the fakes. Convincingly argued and clearly written, <em>The God Question</em> explains how to set off on your quest and how to mark the mileposts along the way.</p>--David Neff, former editor in chief of Christianity Today<br><br><p><em>The God Question</em> transforms your thinking about why you are unhappy and how to become happy. J. P. Moreland compels you to set aside the mental preoccupations that deplete you and reconnect with your core identity . . . Jesus forming in you. Moreland provides helpful steps and strategies for changing your narrative, for moving from your 'empty self' to living a larger purpose from which you can derive significance and well-being. Whether you are a seeker or a believer, this book is for you . . . a masterpiece that shines brilliant truths of Scripture on your twenty-first-century incapacity to ever be happy . . . apart from Jesus.</p>--Teri Marcos, author of Bethlehem's Gift and Calvary's Tree<br><br><p>Insightful, challenging, relevant, inspiring--all fitting descriptions of <em>The God Question</em>. Moreland masterfully combines insights from his personal spiritual journey, his philosophical training, and his conversations with seekers and believers over many years to help us all find answers to life's biggest and most important questions.</p>--Stan W. Wallace, president and CEO of Global Scholars, host of the College Faith podcast<br><br><p>J. P. Moreland, a favorite professor of mine, does not disappoint. He taught me that we should not live to do philosophy but that we should do philosophy that we might live. This book exemplifies someone who has wrestled with the big questions through a skillfully led life and has acquired knowledge. Along with his personal, identifiable story, the book is set in the context of increasing personal malaise, anxiety, and unhappiness that is endemic in our culture. He invites us to explore the big question about life's meaning--the quest of the human heart. Yet he recognizes that the heart cannot embrace what the mind cannot believe. He goes on to help remove obstacles from before us while offering the best explanation of why so many are unhappy and how we can attain the happiness for which we have been designed.</p>--Corey Miller, president of Ratio Christi and author of In Search of the Good Life: Through the Eyes of Aristotle, Maimonides, and Aquinas<br>
