Sooner or later every thinking person wonders about God. Does God exist, or is he simply a figment of our imagination? If God exists, what is he like? For most of my life, my answers were based on what others had told me. Although I was curious about God and religion, I never took the time and effort necessary to explore such matters. As an economist who has written five books, I had spent more than half a century researching complex economic issues. I decided it was time to embark on what would become my most ambitious project ever, the search for evidence for God and answers to the big questions in life. While there are many ways to search for God, my approach had to be different. It would be logical and systematic. I would approach the project as Mr. Spock, the fictional character from Star Trek, who would meticulously examine evidence, weigh the odds, and reach a logical conclusion. My approach involved examining atheists' views, looking into evidence for life after death, searching for the evidence surrounding the world's religions, and exploring post-Biblical evidence for God. My quest lasted many years. It had all the sensations of an Indiana Jones movie-frightening discoveries, sleepless nights, and fulfilling Ah-ha! moments with background music. There were unpleasant moments when I became terribly discouraged and depressed, times when I wanted to throw in the towel, took time off and even considered quitting. This book takes you through my search for the evidence for God. If you decide to come along, I must warn you-a quest for evidence of God can produce some disturbing discoveries. If you are anything like me, there will be times you will wish you never started, times you question long-held beliefs, times you want to quit, and times you'll be glad you didn't. I invite you to join me on what became the journey of a lifetime, my search for evidence for God.

In Is There Evidence for God?: An Economist Searches for Answers, author Robert Genetski embarks on a compelling exploration of religious beliefs, existential questions, and the intricacies of faith. Drawing on his background as an economist, Genetski offers unique insights and informed perspectives on a range of topics, from the existence of God and life after death to miracles and atheism. Throughout the book, he shares personal anecdotes and inspiring stories that have shaped his own spiritual journey, inviting readers to reflect on their beliefs and form their own perspectives.
Opening with the thought-provoking question "To believe or not to believe," Genetski sets the tone for a balanced and inquisitive examination of faith. He approaches each topic with logical reasoning and thorough explanations, ensuring that readers are given a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter. Moreover, Genetski's objectivity and intentionality in presenting his findings make for a refreshing and engaging read.
The book's structure lends itself well to an organized and systematic exploration of complex themes. Divided into five distinct parts, Genetski delves into topics such as the concept of an eternal God, supernatural life, world religions, and evidence of God in the contemporary world. The fifth section, a more personal account of the author's own experiences and lessons learned in his search for God, provides a captivating and intimate touch.
One standout topic is the examination of world religions, which offers readers an enlightening and unbiased look at the doctrines and practices of Hinduism, Judaism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, and other faiths. Additionally, the discussion of historical divine sightings and events, such as the children of Fatima, Jesus' burial garments, and the occurrences at Tepeyac Hill, Mexico, in 1531, provides intriguing evidence for those seeking to understand the divine.
I highly recommend this book to those interested in religious studies and history. Genetski's impartial and informative approach will appeal to readers seeking to broaden their understanding of faith and engage in thoughtful reflection on their own beliefs.
