For decades, McDowell has been a prominent speaker with Campus Crusade for Christ, addressing issues of faith, character, and youth culture worldwide. His work emphasizes historical and legal evidence for Christianity and tackles challenges posed by skepticism and non-Christian beliefs. He lives in California with his wife, Dottie, and is the father of four children, including fellow apologist Sean McDowell.

Reviews

[Timmy Cham · Rating 3 out of 5]

Kind of like a The Screwtape Letters for teenagers. This brief novel follows a group of Christian students while they try to strengthen their Christian lives and evangelize to non-Christian students. The book also follows some underworld demons as they try to derail the Christian students in their efforts.

[Josiah · Rating 3 out of 5]

The story moves along well here and is very believable, supplemented nicely by the Biblical advice of Josh McDowell and company. The narrative is interesting and compelling, with a lot to catch the attention of reluctant young Christian readers. Most of all, Under Siege provides help to growing Christians of all ages.
