Everyone must respond to the Divine Imperative. Ultimately, everyone answers God with a "yes" or a "no." This book explores the ways in which we submit our response. An Absent faith is agnosticism as regards biblical Truth. Every person begins at this stage. Everyone who hears the gospel must then respond to it.

If the response is no, there are two general options: a Belligerent opposition to God (i.e., atheism), or an acceptance of a Counterfeit religion. If the response is yes, there are likewise two variations: a poorly understood and Defeated faith that constricts more than it delivers, or, optimally, an Examined faith that exalts in the grace of God, delights in His promises, and worships Him in the beauty of His holiness. This book is intended to lead the readers to this final response through a reasonable and thoughtful consideration of the truths that challenge such a faith.
