A Clear Guide to Help Readers Understand Why They Can Trust the Bible
We are often told we can no longer assume that the Bible is trustworthy. From social media memes to popular scholarship, so many attacks have been launched on the believability of Scripture that many have serious questions about the Bible, such as:
- Did Jesus actually live?
- Did the biblical writers invent their message?
- How can we trust the gospels since they were written so long after Jesus lived?
- How can we believe a Bible that is full of internal contradictions with itself and external contradictions with science?
- Aren't the biblical manuscripts we have just copies of copies that are so corrupted they don't represent what the original authors wrote?
- Why should we believe the books that are in the Bible, since many good ones were left out, like the Gospel of Thomas?
- Why trust the Bible when there are so many contradictory translations of it?
If you find yourself unable to answer questions such as these, but wanting to, Why I Trust the Bible by eminent Bible scholar and translator William Mounce is for you. These questions and more are discussed and answered in a reasoned, definitive, and winsome way.
The truth is that the Bible is better attested and more defensible today than it ever has been. Questions about the Bible are perhaps the most significant challenge confronting Christian faith today, but they can be answered well and in a way which will lead to a deeper appreciation for the truth and ongoing relevance of the Bible.

Praise for Why I Trust the Bible
—THOMAS R. SCHREINER, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
“Ordinary believers wonder whether the Bible is really true, whether we can truly trust the Scriptures. Why I Trust the Bible represents a learned and accessible response to such questions. Many, I believe, will be assured in their faith by reading this important book.”
—ERIC MASON, Epiphany Fellowship
“We live in a time when truth is subject to a person’s preferences and what is called “truth” is really just formulated montage of misinformation. We need accessible and accurate information for people of all walks of life. In Why I Trust the Bible, Bill Mounce invites Christ followers and doubters to consider the reasonable and sound answers he provides to today’s tough questions.”
—WAYNE GRUDEM, Phoenix Seminary
“Bill Mounce has produced a remarkably clear, comprehensive, and level-headed resource that carefully and graciously explains each type of objection that has been lodged against the Bible, and then answers each objection with convincing facts and arguments. I expect that all who read it will gain deeper confidence in the trustworthiness of the Bible.”
—SAM STORMS, Bridgeway Church
“This excellent volume is a treasure trove of explanations of difficult texts and answers to skeptics’ questions about the Bible. With each chapter I found my confidence in the integrity of the biblical text reaffirmed and strengthened. Bill Mounce is uniquely qualified to respond to the many arguments against the authority and trustworthiness of the Bible, and I highly commend this book to anyone who is struggling to believe that Scripture is genuinely God-breathed and inerrant.”
