“In
The Veritas Conflict
, Shaunti Feldhahn paints a disturbingly accurate picture of the liberal climate surrounding our most hallowed academic institutions, and of the intense spiritual warfare that exists there. Not only is this thrilling novel a pleasure to read—it gives powerful, Christ-centered perspectives on many difficult situations Christian students face in today’s classroom. Highly recommended for every student and parent!”

Dr. Bill Bright
, founder and president,
Campus Crusade for Christ International


The Veritas Conflict
is a fictional story that is packed with truth. This novel gives a compelling glimpse into the spiritual warfare behind the scenes of one of our nations great universities and sounds a trumpet call for Christians to be salt and light in our often-challenging, secular culture. This story will draw you into a deeper walk with Christ, and inspire you to stand for His truth.”

Dr. Cindy Jacobs
, bestselling author of
Women of Destiny
and
The Voice of God

“A carefully woven plotline that, through the medium of story, delves deeply into intellectual and emotional issues and the invincible power of prayer. Shaunti has written an engaging novel that provides answers to some of life’s most difficult questions about God and truth.”

Ravi Zacharias,
Christian apologist and author,
The Lotus and the Cross

“Having trained Christian students for over twenty years how to apply their faith in a secular educational setting, I know the hazards they face in attempting to be
salt and light
within an increasingly tasteless and dark campus environment.
The Veritas Conflict
challenges Christian students to think about the invisible battle they face on campus—with forces of spiritual darkness, as well as deceitful philosophies, vying for their hearts and minds. Shaunti Feldhahn has woven together practical ideas for waging war on these two simultaneous battlefronts in a compelling and imaginative way.”

Chuck Edwards,
Director of Bible Study Curriculum, Summit Ministries

“Ms. Feldhahn has an enormous writing talent. I cared about her main characters—rooting for them and hoping they’d come through in the end. Her intricate plot left me breathless in awe at how she tied up everything without dropping a thread! Overall, a message of love was given—love that is patient and love that gives to people unselfishly, right where they are.
The Veritas Conflict
takes a few little facts and becomes a full-blown work of contemporary fiction that will certainly cause readers to think.”

The Veritas Conflict
is a work of fiction. The book is based on some historical facts, but
is infused with nonfacts, the author’s imagination, and the author’s religious opinion.
Any similarity between any character in this book and an actual person, living or dead, is purely
coincidental. The author’s process of creating fiction based on historical facts, imagination, and
opinion is more fully detailed in “A Note from the Author” at the back of the book.
