A Path to Heaven: My Journey from Atheism to Hope
Ebook
"This book illuminates just one path to Heaven, but it is a real path. It has been my path."
We are born into a confusingly pluralistic world, often with little guidance. A Path to Heaven begins from an agnostic perspective and walks step-by-step through the middle of Christianity. Having been an analytical young agnostic, Queen addresses the questions that arose in his search for the truth. Having been a youth and campus minister, he addresses the questions posed to him by numerous high school, college, and graduate students in their searches.
The first section of this book asks whether the Christian claims are true, addressing arguments for and against the existence of God, the historical validity of the New Testament, and Jesus's claims about himself. The second section asks what it means to be a Christian. Why is it so hard to be a Christian? How do you find your unique role within the broader Christian mission? How do you live today in light of the eternal Christian hope?
With the clarity and precision to be expected from a lawyer and distinguished debater, Queen makes Christianity accessible to everyone.
“Through many years in ministry I have learned the best way to help people who are struggling is to connect them with someone who has already been down the same path. It is in this spirit that I heartily recommend A Path to Heaven. K. R. Queen’s journey from atheism to hope is a path taken by many people. He answers the basic questions most people experience while on this journey. His writing is characterized by clarity, honesty, and respect. Anybody who wonders about why they believe what they believe, will find this book to be an invaluable resource. I cannot recommend A Path to Heaven strongly enough.”
—Mark Smith, senior minister, Laurel Church of Christ
"Its strength lies in its willingness to call out instances of intellectual dishonesty and uncharitable actions of fellow Christians, as well as confront the arguments of atheists on fair terms. A practicing lawyer in Seattle, Queen has clearly honed his communications and debate skills, and he offers readers a well-reasoned and accessible case for his return to his faith. At fewer than 125 pages, this is a concise book that keeps its focus on fundamental questions from the perspective of a former skeptic who discovered 'a far better Christianity than I began with.' A well-written, nuanced case for coming back to one’s religion." — Kirkus Reviews
