Ultimately, the literary giant answers the question - not of whether divinity can be believed - but rather, how he himself came to believe it.

Chesterton shares his journey of faith, aiming not to question the validity of Christianity, but rather to illuminate how he personally came to embrace it. Chesterton offers a fresh perspective on Christianity, portraying it as the solution to fundamental human needs—a profound answer to a riddle, as he puts it—rather than an arbitrary truth imposed from beyond our human experience.

This book is meant to be a companion to "Heretics," and to put the positive side in addition to the negative. Many critics complained of the book because it merely criticised current philosophies without offering any alternative philosophy. This book is an attempt to answer the challenge. It is the purpose of the writer to attempt an explanation, not of whether the Christian Faith can be believed, but of how he personally has come to believe it. The book is therefore arranged upon the positive principle of a riddle and its answer.
