Rational Faith “While it’s the goal here at Rational Faith to demonstrate that the Christian Faith is rational because it is based on truth that is corroborated by evidence, there’s more to living out the faith than simply knowing Christianity is able to withstand any attack…. Not only is God concerned that you have a Godly view of the faith; He also wants you to have a Godly approach to all of life.”
