Here is a sampling from some of the thousands of comments we have received about our events, videos, and books.
FaithSearch International
Dr. Don Bierle and the FaithSearch ministry has blessed our congregation immensely throughout our many years of partnership. Surprised by Faith is a favorite among our Christian education offerings on Sunday mornings, and this resource has been effectively used in a variety of formats within our congregation including groups large and small as well as individual instruction. I highly recommend this resource as one that changes not only minds but hearts as well.

I so needed this because my heart has been so burdened for many in my family and friends who do not believe, who are following the world religions.

This really amazed me and brought me closer to God. You gave me even greater understanding of the wonders of Creation.

Thank you for opening my mind and my heart to learn more. You have truly touched me. Thank you!

I've heard many times from people that all religion is simply what you've been taught; and [that] you can't really know if what you've been taught is any more valid than what anyone else has been taught. You have clearly presented evidence (historical) which supports the Scriptural truth.

An excellent review of the validity of the Bible and of Christian faith.

Surprised by Faith
Dr. Bierle, I have just finished reading your book and must confess that this book meant more for me than all the other books combined which I have read and studied in an effort to improve my faith and build a personal relationship with God. Being a scientist myself, I enjoyed the systematic approach and analytical processes you used. They all are clear, concise and to the point. And, I couldn’t believe that your book could so accurately pinpoint my faith block…pride! I have for years been trying to figure out what it is I must do, or stop doing, to have a personal relationship with the Lord and as I was about to give up, and now at age 67, it comes to me from a brother in Christ from the other side of the world All praise to God!

I was always struggling with so many long and difficult names and locations mentioned in the Bible. Now I know why they are absolutely essential for the validity of the text. I will read them very carefully from now on. Thank you for giving me many answers to the questions I constantly hear from my relatives and friends!

You teach really clearly. I found some of the facts sticking without my making an effort to memorize them. I'll confess I was skeptical about the apologist we were going to have, but you were awesome. I learned a lot. I'm challenged. God bless you!

I don't want to be a person who does not know why I believe what I believe. I was raised in a Chrisian home but have more doubts after graduating from a Christian College. For many years, I have believed in Jesus because that's what people told me to do. I appreciate this seminar as it has helped me in the process of reforming a stronger, more firmly built faith in Jesus.
