A Mechanic's Handbook To The God Of The Bible
Michael O. Borthwick's -- A Mechanic's Handbook To The God Of The Bible: Why God Just Makes Sense is an intriguing title for a book referring to the God of the Bible and His relevance. An excellent read for individuals who want to know more about God and the Christian faith. The book is written in such a way that both believers and those unsure of their beliefs can greatly benefit from it.
Michael’s grasp of scripture, and his ability to explain theological concepts in an easy-to-understand way, skillfully intertwines biblical scripture and personal life experiences to portray an authentic path to salvation. He covers the nature of sin, the existence of Heaven and Hell, the importance of eternal security, the perceived tension between the scientific theory of creation in relation to biblical faith, prophecies, and challenges living the Christian faith in todays world.
When read cover to cover the book gives the reader a solid foundation of “Why God Just Makes Sense” -- a good book to give out to family, friends, neighbours or acquaintances who maybe searching.

Michael provides logical answers for those who have questions about God. He systematically approaches the Word of God -- connecting the dots from Genesis to Revelation. There is a sincerity and inspirational tone in his writing. Whether he is sharing personal details about his life or explaining Bible passages, his narrative style is straightforward and easy to read. Borthwick's tone is casual and warm like a friendly conversation in a friend's living room.

God makes sense
It is a special blessing when a lay person can articulate God’s presence in their life. Michael Borthwick, with God’s guidance has done just that. I thank Michael for being obedient to God’s direction in writing this book. Any believer can see God’s inspiration through Michael.
Thank you Michael for your devotion and witness.

Good book!!!
This book was a good read I really liked how is was more of a self disclosing. It was more a story of how he went from a non believer, to a believer that is not afraid to share his life experiences.
