What book(s) could I read that make compelling arguments for the existence of a god, particularly the Christian god. I've heard thomas aquinas makes a compelling case.

Aquinas does not argue for the Christian god, but rather a deist god. Also, his Five Ways argument is riddled with non-cognitive language.

Try Thomas Merton's autobiography, The Seven-Story Mountain.

Another memoir, A Severe Mercy by Sheldon Vanauken, discusses the conversion process he underwent along with his life during at stay at Oxford when they encountered C.S. Lewis. A very fine book.

C.S. Lewis's Mere Christianity is quite good, and his Screwtape Letters is hilarious, while slipping the reader a lot of compelling Christian red pills in a sideways sort of fashion (the book being a collection of letters written by a senior demon to a junior demon).

Another book I always recommend is Spiritual Journeys edited by Robert Baram, a really first-rate collection of conversion stories. I've read many such collections, and this is one of the best and most interesting of the lot.
