Black Americans have long been shackled to the Democrats. Seeing no viable alternative, they have watched liberal politicians take the Black vote for granted without pledging anything in return. In Blackout, Owens argues that this automatic allegiance is both illogical and unearned. She contends that the Democrat Party has a long history of racism and exposes the ideals that hinder the Black community’s ability to rise above poverty, live independent and successful lives, and be an active part of the American dream.

Story
The scholarship of theology and religion teaches us that the God of the Bible was without a body, only revealing himself in the Old Testament in words mysteriously uttered through his prophets, and in the New Testament in the body of Christ. The portrayal of God as corporeal and masculine is seen as merely metaphorical, figurative, or poetic. But, in this revelatory study, Francesca Stavrakopoulou presents a vividly corporeal image of God: a human-shaped deity who walks and talks and weeps and laughs, who eats, sleeps, feels, and breathes, and who is undeniably male.

Critical race theory is one of the hottest and most controversial topics in the world today, but what is it, really? Rightly understood, critical race theory is a reinvention of an older, terrible idea, Marxism, using race "as the central construct for understanding inequality" in place of economic class. That is, critical race theory is race Marxism. The evidence of this claim is so overwhelming upon even casual examination that it is a shock that it isn't immediately plain to everyone who encounters it.

Publisher's summary
Without God, how can we have hope or make sense of such a broken world?
Skeptics believe we don’t need God to understand reality, and that science and reason hold the keys to building a better world. Faith is blind, and there is no credible evidence for God’s existence - especially the God of the Bible. Therefore, science and religious belief are deeply incompatible, and God is no longer relevant to our modern world.
But if there is no God, how can our lives have any meaning? How can we make sense of good and evil, truth, justice, beauty, rationality, or even science itself? By engaging with popular atheists and skeptics, both new and old, as well as many of Christianity’s most brilliant writers, pastor and author Zachary Broom demonstrates how not only is there powerful evidence for God’s existence, but without him, everything begins to unravel.
Instead of setting out to “prove” God’s existence, Without God carefully and seriously engages skeptic’s doubts and common arguments against God, making use of philosophy, science, literature, and real-life conversations, as well as the author's own struggles and doubts.
Whether you believe in God or not, you will be challenged to wrestle carefully with life’s most important questions in a way that will lead you to a greater respect for the beliefs of others.

The spirit of our times can appear to be one of joyless urgency. As a culture we have become less interested in the exploration of the glorious mind, and more interested in creating and mastering technologies that will yield material well-being. But while cultural pessimism is always fashionable, there is still much to give us hope.

Story
Pro-life Christians, take heart: the pro-life message can compete in the marketplace of ideas - provided Christians properly understand and articulate that message. Too many Christians do not understand the essential truths of the pro-life position, making it difficult for them to articulate a biblical worldview on issues like abortion, cloning, and embryo research. The Case for Life provides intellectual grounding for the pro-life convictions that most evangelicals hold.

Story
In The Dream of Enlightenment, Anthony Gottlieb expertly navigates a second great explosion of thought, taking us to northern Europe in the wake of its wars of religion and the rise of Galilean science. In a relatively short period - from the early 1640s to the eve of the French Revolution - Descartes, Hobbes, Spinoza, Locke, Leibniz, and Hume all made their mark. The Dream of Enlightenment tells their story and that of the birth of modern philosophy.

Story
Where did the ideas come from that became the cornerstone of American democracy? Not only the erudite Thomas Jefferson, the wily and elusive Ben Franklin, and the underappreciated Thomas Paine, but also Ethan Allen, the hero of the Green Mountain Boys, and Thomas Young, the forgotten Founder who kicked off the Boston Tea Party. These radicals who founded America set their sights on a revolution of the mind. Derided as "infidels" and "atheists" in their own time, they wanted to liberate us not just from one king but from the tyranny of supernatural religion.

Story
Discovering that reason is the defining feature of our species, we named ourselves the “rational animal”. But is this flattering story itself rational? In this sweeping account of irrationality from antiquity to today - from the fifth-century BC murder of Hippasus for revealing the existence of irrational numbers to the rise of Twitter mobs and the election of Donald Trump - Justin Smith says the evidence suggests the opposite.

For all the thousands of books that have been written about religion, few until this one have attempted to examine it scientifically: to ask why - and how - it has shaped so many lives so strongly. Is religion a product of blind evolutionary instinct or rational choice? Is it truly the best way to live a moral life? Ranging through biology, history, and psychology, Daniel C. Dennett charts religion’s evolution from “wild” folk belief to “domesticated” dogma.

Object of faith more vital than certainty of faith
The author clearly has read from a number of different sources in working on this book. He frequently references and quotes a variety of people from various backgrounds. I always appreciate when people take time share their faith and could clearly see that the author desires for people to come to know Jesus. Sometimes he sounded too much like William Lane Craig or the Intelligent Design proponents from the Discovery Institute. I wished he had defined several of his terms more precisely, some were used differently than how I often see them defined. My favorite chapter in the book was the chapter on pain and suffering. The arguments for the existence of God were weaker arguments than some that I have heard and I didn’t find them very compelling. For example, the argument for irreducible complexity is a God of the gaps argument and has been debunked. I did like how the author emphasized that it is the object of our faith rather than the certainty of our faith that matters most. It’s a good book and similar to others I have read on this topic.
Disclosure: I received a complimentary copy of the audio version of this book. I was asked (but not required) to give my honest review. I do not know the author.

Thought, reason and all creation declare the Glory and nature of God
“Without God” is an excellent, instructive and moving work in Christian apologetics. The work is concise yet thorough and approachable with each topic and chapter.
Extensive and relevant quotes from those who support and oppose the Christian faith and worldview are throughout out each chapter, providing support for the author’s thesis. This, being accomplished, either directly through agreement or through rebuttal. Intentional care is provided to fairly and graciously represent those quoted authors who stand in opposition.
The heavens declare the Glory Of God. “Without God” is a clear and beautiful presentation of how God’s very character and nature are seen with the existence of morality, logic, and science. That to deny the God of the Bible is to undercut the foundations of morality, logic and science.
The skeptic may take intellectual issue with the arguments raise by the Christian apologist. However, in the final analysis, his ultimate reason for refusal to have faith is a moral issue, rather than a intellectual issue. The issue is rebellion. And the rebel must repent. Repentance and faith is the pathway to understanding and intellectually inquiry. One must believe in order to understand. Not the other way around. “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.”
With this, the apologist is to be the evangelist, the bearer of the good news: Sinners need a new standing before God and a new heart to understand God and His works. Jesus Christ provides both. Good news indeed. This is what every believer in Jesus Christ is called to proclaim.
Ephesians 4 reads that God has provided teachers “to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ.”
“Without God” is a very commendable work to so equip and build up the body of Christ, that believers “honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect” (1 Peter 3:15).

Great Tool for Defending Faith
I received this audiobook free at my request and am leaving this review voluntarily.
Without God is a great book of Christian apologetics that one could use to defend their already held belief in the existence of God, or for those questioning to seek answers. The book is well written and easy to understand. Definitely recommend!

Facing Your Doubts
I received this audiobook in exchange for an honest review,
Without God: Science, Belief, Morality, and the Meaning of Life is written and narrated by Zachary Broom. In this work, Broom poses arguments that individuals have with the Christian faith, and he refutes them with Biblical passages, expert sources and personal reasoning. These resources come together to create a strong argument for belief in the Christian God. He narrates the book with a passion and articulation that's not always present among authors who narrate their work.
Zachary Broom breaks down the most popular anti-Christian arguments by chapter. These topics include the problem of evil, self-evident truths, the credibility of the Bible and the basis for morality. He refutes each issue with a generous number of quotes and arguments from atheists, agnostics and humanists, including Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins. He also includes citations from Christian apologetics, like Josh McDowell and Timothy Keller, and famed authors, like Fyodor Dostoevsky and C.S. Lewis, These sources all lend credibility to his work; it's clear he took the time and effort to thoroughly research arguments both for and against Christianity. And although he uses some personal beliefs and experiences to back up his claims, he never relies on them too heavily.
A quality author is not always the best individual to narrate their work, but Broom does an excellent job here. His narration is precise, articulate and clear. He flows smoothly through each sentence, while never stuttering or hesitating through difficult passages. He brings a high level of enthusiasm and commitment to this work, It's obvious that he cares deeply about the subject matter. Pronunciation of some words and names is one of the only areas where he could improve (fyodor dostoevsky and The Brothers Karamazov, for example). Nonetheless, he's a solid narrator for this book.
If you're a Christian, Without God is an excellent way for you to dig into the depths of your beliefs and alleviate your doubts. If you're an atheist, humanist or agnostic, or if you don't believe that the Christian faith has any basis, this book will open your mind to new arguments and beliefs. I strongly believe it's in everyone's best interest to test your beliefs and face your doubts, and this book is a great way of doing that. Broom includes numerous sources, arguments and quotes that lend to excellent discussion and contemplation. And he keeps things interesting with his compelling narration. I highly recommend Without God.

Best apologetics book I've read yet!
As an atheist, although it failed to be convincing in the end, was the best apologetics book I've read so far. Unlike the others, there isn't any straw-manning or intellectually dishonest arguments.

An Engaging Explanation of Christian Apologetics
Zachary Broom's "Without God" is a comprehensive look at Christian explanations for scientific and ethical phenomena, complete with arguments from the atheistic perspective and various answers to questions. Other books of this type often devolve into insulting tone and language at atheists, but Mr. Broom deftly avouds that here. I do sometimes wish he didn't go back to the same Christian thinkers for many of his arguments, but it's overall a measured and compelling take on the apologetic genre. If only I could get my brother to read it!

An Excellent Anthology
An excellent anthology of arguments pro and con regarding the existence of a creator God in which it is shown that when all the cards are finally laid upon the table, both sides stand on an argument of faith. The drawback to tackling this in audio format is that the information in this is so encompassing and relentless that you really can't keep track of it all. It really requires folded pages, highlighted paragraphs, and underlines sentences to refer back to and reread as needed.

the philosophical argument for God
"Saying God doesnt exist because science cannot prove it is like saying diamonds dont exist because metal detectors cant detect them". In recent years there have been lots of books about proving or disproving the existence of the Christian God. This book takes the different path of forsaking the religious or scientific arguments and looking at the philosophical arguments for the existence of God. I do not claim to be a philosopher and the book would point out my biases but I believe it was a well reasoned argument and it expanded my knowledge of science, philosophy. and even faith. I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
