I understand that the existence of a creator does not necessitate that the Bible is reliable and true.
I think that most people aren't willing to entertain the latter until they have opened their mind to former through a review of the evidence on both sides of the argument.
Leading Bible Scholars are a surprisingly good mix of believers, agnostics, and atheists. There are a lot of good lectures about how they have come to trust the Bible's authenticity to the original documents, as it is a common argument that it has been changed with time. Other topics to look into are their evidence from Roman documents (not religious texts) on the death of Jesus and the 500+ witnesses to The Resurrection.
