"At this point of crisis for faith, God is Good For You, shows us why Christianity is so vital for our personal and social wellbeing and how modern Christians have never worked so hard to make the world a better place at a time when their faith has never been less valued. It carries a vital torch for Christianity in a way that's closely argued, warmly human, good humoured yet passionate, and above all, convincing." ACC Emag

"God is Good for You is inspiring, insightful and informative. In an age where skepticism is elevated in mainstream belief, Sheridan makes the case for faith with fresh urgency. Deftly written, this book adds volume to a much needed voice in our current social climate. I highly encourage all to delve into it with an open mind and a ready heart." Pastor Samuel Rodriguez, Founder and Pastor of the New Season Christian Worship Center

"I have just finished reading God is Good for You which I have thoroughly enjoyed. I love the journalistic style which draws the reader in, astonishing breadth in bibliography and appreciation of the beauty of the diversity of the church. I enjoyed every chapter but my most underlined one was the conclusion. I do hope the book will be widely read, not only in Australia but also worldwide." Pastor Nicky Gumbel, Vicar of Holy Trinity Brompton, London, and the developer of the world famous Alpha Course
