Top Ten Books in Apologetics
I often hear people asking about recommendations for books in the area of apologetics. There are always good and new books coming out. One place where you can look for these is the book reviews page at Hope’s Reason: A Journal of Apologetics.
Another way to find what is good is to look at the Amazon best sellers in the apologetics category. What I find interesting about this is that many of the older books, especially by C.S. Lewis, are at the top of the list.
Here are the top ten apologetics books as of the time of this post. Please note that I am an Amazon affiliate and you can support my ministry by purchasing books through these links.
- Mere Christianity by C.S Lewis
- The Reason for God by Tim Keller
- The Case for Christ by Lee Strobel
- The Complete C.S. Lewis Signature Classics by C.S. Lewis
- Finding Truth by Nancy Pearcey
- The Knowledge of the Holy by A.W. Tozer
- Cold-Case Christianity by J. Warner Wallace
- More Than a Carpenter by Josh McDowell
- I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist by Norman Geisler and Frank Turek
- The Weight of Glory by C.S. Lewis




I recently read Strobel’s The Case for Faith and found it excellent as well in regards to apologetics. I highly recommend it.
I haven’t read that one yet, but I did like his other one.
You didn’t even include any Billy Craig like Reasonable Faith, are you Joshing me?
The list is based on the Amazon bestsellers and not my opinions.
It’s odd to have Tozer’s work on this list as it has nothing intentionally to do with apologetics. Amazon’s categorization on that one is way off.
I agree.
