Don't let the size or the cover of the book fool you - while small and seemingly simple, Gilbert uses this book to encourage Christians to recognize why we can and should trust the Bible. I was challenged to think through why I trust the Bible rather than simply saying something to the effect of, “I have faith it's true” or “I go to a church that tells me it's true”. I probably would benefit from reading this book again and will keep it handy as a reference and even see it as a beneficial recommendation for nonbelievers interested in understanding the Bible as trustworthy or not (as Gilbert addresses). The recommended resources at the end are also helpful. I further appreciated he had a specific goal in mind for this book, focused on it despite how this book could have easily been ten times as long, and provided other works that already have sought out to address other aspects he references.
