Summary: Denys Turner challenges the prevailing orthodoxy amongst philosophers that God's existence cannot be demonstrated by rational argument, and the view of most Christian theologians that rational proof is incompatible with Christian faith. He argues, addressing both believers and non-believers, that the God of Christian faith can be proved to exist.
