Thank you so much for posting this great wisdom. Dr. Oswalt’s book “The Bible Among the Myths” is one of the best apologetic books on our faith I have ever read. I highly recommend it !

I have this book. In fact, I reviewed it for Apologetics315. I quote it often on forums with atheists who insist Christianity is just another myth from the Ancient Near East. It’s terrific.
I haven’t read this book yet, but it’s at the top of my reading list!
