A Path to Heaven: My Journey from Atheism to Hope
"This book illuminates just one path to Heaven, but it is a real path. It has been my path."
We are born into a confusingly pluralistic world, often with little guidance. A Path to Heaven begins from an agnostic perspective and walks step-by-step through the middle of Christianity. Having been an analytical young agnostic, Queen addresses the questions that arose in his search for the truth. Having been a youth and campus minister, he addresses the questions posed to him by numerous high school, college, and graduate students in their searches.
The first section of this book asks whether the Christian claims are true, addressing arguments for and against the existence of God, the historical validity of the New Testament, and Jesus's claims about himself. The second section asks what it means to be a Christian. Why is it so hard to be a Christian? How do you find your unique role within the broader Christian mission? How do you live today in light of the eternal Christian hope?
With the clarity and precision to be expected from a lawyer and distinguished debater, Queen makes Christianity accessible to everyone.

Highly Recommended
Well worth carving out a few hours in your day to read!
This is not a theology book. It’s not an in-your-face attempt to shove certain ideals or a specific worldview down anyone’s throat.
It simply describes one (very intelligent, analytical) young man’s questions about 1) God’s existence, 2) his journey to find answers, and 3) his suggested resources for anyone asking those same questions to discover answers for themselves.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for anyone-Atheist, Christ follower, and all who are anywhere in-between.

Highly recommend this book for just about everyone! It does a wonderful job of striking the balance between presenting truth without disregarding real questions, encouraging growth and change without judgment, and providing a simple path forward without compromising on the vastness and complexity of God and faith. Whether you’re an atheist, an incredibly faithful Christian, or one of the questioning/struggling/doubting/wondering people in between, I think you will find reading this book to be a beneficial way to spend an afternoon.
