Knowing and understanding the truth of the Bible has never been more important than it is now in these times of collective doubt and crumbling institutions. But as important as absolute truth is, its value pales in comparison to the ultimate reality of living in union with and knowing God.

Résumé
Is there more to the Christian life than what you’re currently experiencing?
Leading Christian apologist Hank Hanegraaff has dedicated his life to defending truth, because truth matters. However, his life and ministry were radically transformed by this three-word phrase: life matters more.
In essence, Truth Matters, Life Matters More is two books in one. Because truth matters, part 1 explicates the essentials of the Christian faith in a memorable way to equip readers to communicate Christian truth. In part 2, Hank explains why life matters more and how we can experience the height of human existence—union with God. Simply put, the map is not the territory. The menu is not the meal. We cheat ourselves of unadulterated union with Christ when we elevate the message above the Messenger.
Truth Matters, Life Matters More is a modern classic and the magnum opus of one of the great theological minds of our time. Prepare to discover the unexpected beauty of an authentic Christian life.
Texte suppl.
'Long convinced that we are truly human becomings more than human beings, I welcome the arrival of Truth Matters, Life Matters More. Having known Hank for nearly forty years and having worked closely with him for a good number of those years, I can testify to the journey of deep personal transformation that this book chronicles--a journey that beckons all those who wish to truly follow Christ. Unwilling to surrender to the pscyhosclerosis ('hardening of the categories') that characterizes far too many Christians, Hank's openness to the Spirit and his unquenchable thirst for truth have thankfully made him 'paradigm pliable.' Perhaps suggesting that truth is more a vital verb than a noetic noun, more a rushing river than a placid pond, this book provides fascinating insights into the enlarged and consequently enriched theological and existential perspectives possible when West meets East. This book will thrill many. It is also guaranteed to annoy and disturb others too settled and accustomed to seeing truth through the narrow chinks of their culturally conditioned intellectual and perspectival caverns. As with much of life, our reactions will reveal more about us, the readers, than the author. For those who have applauded and supported the work of this relentless defender and champion of biblical truth for decades, Truth Matters, Life Matters More is more than a spiritual milestone. It's a cairn marking the path toward higher ground.'
