Academic Freedom and Christian Scholarship

Discipleship & Christian Education

“Anthony Diekema's work should become a standard point of reference for Christian academics and administrators in both church-related and secular institutions. He explores the meaning and necessity of academic freedom in relation to worldviews and the mission of a college or university, and offers creative proposals for policy development. A thoroughly researched, balanced, and persuasive book.”

Conceiving the Christian College

Discipleship & Christian Education

“A valuable and stimulating addition to recent discussions of Christian higher education, focusing on a systemic rather than an umbrella model. Duane Litfin unpacks the theological foundations of clichés like 'Christ-centered learning' and 'integration' and analyzes current challenges with a wary eye on both Enlightenment and postmodern assumptions.”

Francis Schaeffer’s Apologetics

Apologetics

Foreword

“Without doubt the most competent analysis of Schaeffer’s work to date. Morris is a first-rank philosopher and an ardent evangelical: his critique is a needful but friendly one, and he puts his finger on key issues.”

Hidden Worldviews

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“This is an unusual book in two regards that commend it for the beginner in worldview thinking. First, it is not about theistic apologetics in the traditional sense, nor about worldviews philosophically developed, but about worldviews as ways of experiencing life. Eight hidden worldviews have infiltrated contemporary culture, reshaping human experience and our perceptions of life's purpose. The authors uncover the tacit assumptions, and take stock of the actual proposals in the light of insights from a variety of disciplines. They conclude by inviting the reader to develop a theistic worldview that integrates every aspect of life into a consistent whole, under the guidance of the Wesleyan quadrilateral (this is the book's second unusual regard): Scripture, tradition, reason and experience.”

On Behalf of God

Science & Faith

“This fresh, engaging, cutting-edge approach to pressing bioethical concerns is the most significant evangelical work on such matters for decades. Authored jointly by a biologist and a philosopher, based on an ethic of stewardship, and marked by carefully argued proposals, this book merits serious discussion by ethicists, policy makers, and practitioners of every persuasion.”
