She has an evangelical upbringing and a Cambridge education, a PhD in literature. In McLaughlin’s, it was through her work with the Veritas Forum. In Keller’s case, that was with young, upwardly mobile New York urbanites. Like Tim Keller in his The Reason for God, McLaughlin is delivering the fruit of her years involved in frontline Christian apologetics. So here I go: McLaughlin is easy to read, has done some good homework, has a compelling personal story, and writes with a British accent so clearly she is smart okay you can’t deny it. Third, to be honest, was that Crossway was willing to give me a free copy in exchange for an honest review, no strings attached. Second was the author: I read a piece of hers on TGC that I liked. I actually assumed it was a non-Christian book. What first attracted me to Rebecca McLaughlin’s Confronting Christianity: 12 Hard Questions for the World’s Largest Religion was the title.
