Tell ME Why: A Father Answers His Daughter’s Questions about God

Michael Novak,Jana Novak

Hailed as a new classic in faith exploration, this remarkable book offers a rare chance to eavesdrop on a conversation between a believing father and a skeptical daughter about God, faith, and morals. World-renowned theologian Michael Novak accepts a unique challenge when his twentysomething daughter Jana sends him a long fax filled with practical questions about life and religion. His answers – warm, wise, and unfaltering – serve as guideposts to faith at a critical time in his daughter’s life. For her part, Jana is not interested in a scholarly essay but in straight and honest replies; she challenges what she doesn’t understand, and she never hesitates to bat back an answer she doesn’t like.

The result is a lively, thought-provoking dialogue that addresses the concerns of Jana’s generation while also taking on the questions of the ages – from the purpose of religion in our lives, to how good must a Christian be, to the problems of suffering, compassion, and the existence of God. Enacting as it does the difficult passing on of a noble tradition, Tell Me Why offers an illuminating path for anyone searching to embrace or deepen their faith.
