He had science and an Ivy League pedigree―why did he need God? Immersed in his physics studies at Cornell, Tom Rudelius never thought much about God until his brother, a new convert to Christianity, challenged him to explore faith. To placate his twin, he reluctantly began exploring the Bible and the life of Jesus. Seeking proof of God’s existence, he found himself in a world of uncertainty, faced with plenty of reasons for both faith and doubt.

In Chasing Proof, Finding Faith, Tom, now a rising young theoretical physicist, traces his journey to unexpected faith, through subsequent doubt and anxiety, and ultimately to a firmer, life-transforming allegiance to Jesus. Along the way, he explores some of the issues he wrestled with, including

  • Creation and cosmic origins
  • The problem of evil and suffering
  • The compatibility of miracles with science and the plausibility of Jesus’ resurrection
  • The reliability of the Bible

While Tom never found absolute proof of God or Christianity, he ultimately concluded that the existing evidence for both is compelling and compatible with science. His searingly honest story is a potent guide for those doubting or exploring faith.

Rudelius weaves apologetics seamlessly with his personal experiences with suffering and uncertainty. For the Christian, this proves to be a heartening account of how God intervenes in our stories in ways that are both miraculous and mundane. The skeptic will find in these pages encouragement from an understanding friend. On both counts, this is an essential read and a reminder to anyone doubting or exploring faith that they are not alone.

A must-read for Christians and skeptics alike.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book! The author has an uncommon ability to give reason for his faith. He makes many insightful connections as he describes the epiphanies and honest questions that led him to faith in Christ that sees no conflict with science. Highly recommended!

This morning in my studio I started to relisten to Tom Rudelius’ interview with Rebecca McLaughlin (Confronting Christianity) as it was so compelling. Instead downloaded his book—laughed, cried, said amen, yes! Will be purchasing hard copies for upcoming birthdays. Thank you! Ginger Arthur

A day at the studio.

There are many books that admirably explain how science and faith are better friends than enemies, and I expected this book to be another in that genre. Instead, the author shares with vulnerable honesty about his journey to faith, and the challenges he has faced along the way and doubts he still wrestles with from time to time. Refreshing, relatable, thought provoking, and kind.

More than what I was expecting
