Breaking the Islam Code This insightful, reader-friendly book transcends traditional apologetics. It helps Christians understand what is deep in Muslims’ hearts, behind their theology—which will lead to friendship and effective communication; respectfully turn many of the primary objections into opportunities to share the faith; and avoid unnecessarily offending Muslims they’re interacting with.

With millions of viewers worldwide, Lost is one of the most–watched television shows of all time. But there’s more to Lost than the suspense–filled drama that made it famous—each episode focuses on various aspects of life, making it a useful point of reference for understanding how different people view spiritual issues. Ankerberg and Burroughs delve into the major themes highlighted in Lost, including identity, conflict, relationships, and spirituality. They offer practical suggestions for Christians who desire to talk effectively with others about the various themes in the show.

Editorial Reviews

“This book is of great value for groups and their study of Scripture, but certainly can stand alone for any Christian wanting to sharpen their Spiritual learning. You will also find a discussion guide at the end which is a great asset to reinforce your knowledge and use with others. All in all a work that will enrich your own walk with the Lord and be of an insurmountable help in reaching out to others and being far more comfortable that you will be equipped with answers to some of the questions thrown your way.”
The Midwest Book Review


“This book will be best enjoyed by evangelical youth groups, who will resonate with its explicitly Christian focus and the ‘Lost Talk’ discussion questions at the end of each chapter.”
Publishers Weekly


“The authors successfully summarize their view of the show and offer insight on how to walk closer to Christ Jesus. Losties, do not wait; rush out and buy What Can Be Found in LOST? now!”
ReviewYourBook.com


“I’m giving What Can Be Found in LOST? six out of five bookmarks with a tiny remote control and a Bible as a charm. These days, a Christian can’t be seen without the first, and needs to be armed with the second! You can either read this book for yourself to be prepared to give an answer, or pass it on to a fan of the show. ‘Lost’ fans are deep thinkers...they can handle Ankerberg and Burroughs!”

“A practical tool, What Can Be Found in Lost? is designed to help readers segue a conversation about Lost and its implicit spiritual and religious undertones to a conversation about true Christianity.”
mtlMagazine.com


What Can Be Found in LOST? isn’t a very long book, but it is a pretty intriguing read. It will only appeal to watchers of the television show, but it is also a good book to pass along to nonbelievers who like the show and are open to exploring the Christian worldview.”
TheChristianManifesto.wordpress.com


“Anyone who’s faithfully watched the TV series ‘LOST’ has certainly shrugged their shoulders in hope of understanding exactly what’s going on. The book What Can Be Found in LOST? provides a few compelling theories on what’s happening with Jack, Sawyer, Kate and the rest of the crew. But for those who’ve always suspected there was something deeper going on spiritually, the book makes countless interesting parallels that could be a springboard for an interesting Bible study or personal reflection.”
CCM


“It’s a surprisingly fun read that educates about true faith, as well as making the reader want to rush out and watch the entire series!”

Reader Reviews

“I am very impressed at how John Ankerberg and Dillon Burroughs compare and contrast Jesus with the show LOST. I really love this book. I knew the show had some to do with the Bible including one of the characters, Jacob. There were some characterizations of Jack that I didn’t even think about comparing with Jesus until I read your book. I really love the show and after reading your book, it makes me love that show even more. I have every season of LOST on DVD so far. I appreciated reading your book. God Bless!”
