"I've had the pleasure of knowing Jack since we both went to school together in Clinton, Conn. In High School, Jack was a Golden Boy taking the lead in Carousel and winning Best Physique; I like to kid him that he was our class version of Rob Lowe (smile). With his Golden Boy looks, charm, personality and smarts; he was certain to go and conquer the world after we graduated which he did with a highly successful career and lovely wife & family. However, life works in strange ways and at a young age, he was continually blindsighted with several not just one major life show stopping health events that he successfully overcame one by one. This book is an intimate inside look at Jack's personal, medical and professional life and how he courageously persevered to "be the very best he could be" for himself and to provide for his lovely wife Linda and his family against all medical odds after each of these events. Jack is a straight shooter and the book can be brutally honest at times peppered with many personal/professional and medical highs and lows but Jack leads by example of "mind over matter" that is certainly an inspiration to others facing serious medical issues."

Great intro to for those who feel drawn to apologetics
Format: Kindle
James Sire has been a wonderful companion to many Christians who are called to use their intellect. I have been a fan of his ever since his book Scripture Twisting. Sire provides a great service to the Christian community first by identifying the many ways in which we engage in defense of the faith. We tend to think of great speakers in front of skeptical audiences, but there are many other ways in which apologetics is useful and necessary, such as when we are speaking to friends. Any time we are responding to their objections to Christianity, we can do so in a winsome and knowledgeable manner, even if we aren't an intellectual giant like Sire. Second, Sire identifies that types of personality characteristics and character traits necessary to pursue apologetics as a vocation. Of course, the primary characteristic is one of pursuing God. Included with this is some discussion about how we might recognize a calling in defense of the faith. Many pastors want to equip us in ministry, but Sire's discussion actually gets down to helping us recognize if this is our calling. Sire provides some pointers to great books on the major issues we might have to deal with. It's always good to have a book of great sources I also like the many examples he provides in his book about encounters with people, including mistakes he has made. I hope this will have a wide audience and encourage others to consider this calling.

Weak
Format: Paperback
I very weak primer on apologetics. The author is really not convinced himself; so, it is difficult for him to present convincing arguments.
