This presentation has given me answers to some of the questions I've been asked before that I didn't know quite how to answer. Awesome job!

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!

FaithSearch provides an invaluable resource in defending key issues of Christianity. [It] provides the believer a renewed confidence in their faith, while the skeptic is challenged in their unbelief.

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!

Surprised by Faith book
I was given Surprised by Faith to read while on a bus on a choir trip nearly ten years ago. I read it once, then again (outlining it) and reviewed it to see if I had all the data processed correctly. I started buying the books from the publisher though our church in Jacksonville where my wife worked, and gave them out as the books became available. I gave 25-30 books away for people to use... This curriculum is very good and should be heard and absorbed by everyone. It strengthens our faith in the authenticity of the Bible and the reality of God "in human flesh."

Thank you again for the powerful teaching you gave our church on Sunday morning. Your knowledge and insight into the Word of God and the natural world are encouraging and inspiring. We appreciate the relationship we have developed over the years and look forward to it continuing.

The FaithSearch seminar was the best apologetic seminar I have ever been part of. Not only did [it] share evidence that supports biblical faith in a systematic way, [the] visual presentation was the best I have seen bar none! Adding credibility was [the] integration of personal testimony and contemporary developments. I heartily recommend FaithSearch to any church seeking to strengthen the faith and witness of its members.

I’m grateful for your regular teaching here in the park [55+ community in Mesa, AZ] and very happy to know of the consistent attendance of 40+ people. Many people talk about the study around the park. That is so encouraging. God has used you, and continues using you to make a difference here in the park. Thank you for your faithfulness and love for Jesus!

Sunday eve I "forced" our ninth-grade son to come, and he did—kicking and screaming. He asked to come back Monday night because he found it so interesting. Our eighteen-year-old son also came and was fascinated. Thank you so much for your message. I wish we could have had more time.
