Respectable books on apologetics?

[fr0d0]

My wife is a big fan of Love Wins, by Rob Bell. I may have liked it better if I still believed when I read it.

I don't think that's suitable for non Christians. I'm a fan but the support for that particular theology is thin, even though I adopt it myself.

Far better is velvet Elvis. Some awesome Bell stuff in there. Good for non believers too.

I'd also recommend John H Walton's "The lost world of genesis one". I was astounded reading that at the sensitivity Walton shows towards the non believing reader. I think he fully addresses and challenges the atheist position with full reverence and respect. I've seen nothing like it.
