The compelling and richly detailed autobiography of one of the great Christian apologists of modern times.
John C. Lennox is widely regarded as one of the greatest Christian apologists of modern times, having devoted a lifetime to showing how faith in God and faith in reason can stand together.
In My Story, he invites readers into his remarkable journey: growing up in Northern Ireland, studying at Oxford and Cambridge, teaching mathematics at the highest level, and boldly defending the Christian faith in lecture halls, debates and the public square for more than sixty years.
With warmth, wit and disarming honesty, Lennox reflects on the ideas, people and pivotal moments that shaped his life - from the hunger for Bibles in Soviet Russia to encounters with Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, to his ongoing belief that rigorous science and deep faith are not enemies but allies.
Part memoir, part intellectual adventure, My Story is a must-read for anyone curious how a brilliant mathematical mind can hold fast to the gospel - and how one man’s faith has helped millions find a reason to believe in an age of doubt.

A fascinating read, offering insights into the life of one of the most interesting and outstanding Christian figures globally over the past fifty years.
This book reads more like an adventure story than an autobiography – It is a lifetime’s journey with God in every corner of the world extolling the claims of Jesus Christ.
John Lennox’s autobiography is extraordinary. It is an honest, witty and engaging account of his life and it offers a wonderful description of how we perceive the world, from the logic of science and mathematics to the comprehension of beauty – above all how we apprehend God through our life. . . The book is totally absorbing and impossible to put down.
