From Faith to Reason

Brian Baker

FOUNDER & FORMER PASTOR OF RHEMA FAMILY CHURCH PERTH

DID GOD CREATE MANKIND OR DID MANKIND CREATE GOD? 

This is the central and most vital question posed by former successful Pastor and International Speaker Brian Baker. In 1979 he and his wife founded a Church in Perth which in the space of less than ten years grew to be the largest single congregation in the city and one of the largest in Australia. He resigned from the ministry in 1989 when his marriage finally ended, since then he has spent much time examining his person faith and Christian experience and seeking personal peace which had still eluded him even during his total commitment to Christian life and ministry.

Brian boldly questions the very existence of God and uses the Bible which is said to be the ‘Word of God’ to provide evidence that God is NOT the ‘Intelligent Designer’ creator of the universe as creationists have claimed in recent times. Here are the reasons why this former dedicated Christian Fundamentalist has not only now found personal peace but has changed into a Rationalist, Realist, Skeptic and Atheist.

If you are a Christian – This is a book your church will not want you to read!

If you have questions about the validity of the Bible and faith in God and the afterlife – This is a book you should consider.
