Keep Going: Overcoming Doubts about Your Faith

by Neil Martin

Many people struggle with basic questions about the Christian Does God exist? Can I believe the Bible? What about divine sovereignty and human responsibility? Do real Christians experience struggles like these?

Keep Going offers practical help to Christians wrestling with these questions. The book begins by recognizing that doubt is a normal part of Christian experience and that Christians often silently struggle with the basic elements of their faith. Neil Martin then goes on to provide solid answers to these questions, providing strugglers with biblical encouragement that, when considered prayerfully and thoughtfully, will help them to "keep going" in their Christian walk.

Neil is an incredibly intelligent writer and I am nowhere near that level of understanding. Being in a crisis of faith of my own and my husband walking away from faith entirely, I came across this book I've had for years. It was no accident I found it right at this time. His purpose and thesis was stated clearly and outlined well, he brought sources from all backgrounds. Overall it made sense in a way right now that gives me more peace than I have had in years. I relate heavily to Neil in the way his mind works, his doubts spelled out are mine, I felt seen and heard. I did struggle quite a lot with the heavy philosophy portions. I still couldn't wrap my mind around some of those chapters. I had to read and re-read many times. But I kept going! This will be a book I read multiple times and pray I can understand in time but be ok with what I can comprehend for now. Thank you for this work Neil!!

I appreciated the humility that Neil Martin displayed in his writing. He comes alongside you to gently explain away common doubts in the Christian faith. His approach to thinking through tough questions is multifaceted and offers better emotional address in comparison to many other apologetic works. It is a great read and valuable resource.

A solid apologetic book which seeks to approach doubt from a fairly rational perspective. This book could do with more reflection on the emotional components of the struggle with faith.
