Groundless Gods

Philosophy

“Von Sass and Hall have assembled a powerful group of established and emerging philosophical theologians from Europe and North America. This book boldly addresses a faith that is freed from its traditional 'man-behind-the-curtain' metaphysics. As theology moves into a post-metaphysical age in order to account for twenty-first century religious praxis, this anthology leads the way.”

Strength of Mind

Philosophy

“Goodson offers a promising new direction for Christian higher education that is inspired not only by faith but a rich philosophical tradition of intellectualism and a reimaging of the virtues of courage, hope, freedom, and knowledge. This new direction is only enlivened by Goodson’s honest and enlightening reflections on writing and teaching—twin passions whose interweaving form the backbone of the book.” —Ann W. Duncan, Associate Professor of Religion, Goucher College “Earnest and somber, Goodson’s book states in an accessible and clear way the kind of freedom, courage, and hope Christian liberal arts colleges must help students foster if we wish for them to be the bold thinkers of the next generation. Expansive in breadth of figures while nonetheless deep in conviction, this book reminds us why we became professors in the first place.”

The Philosopher’s Playground

Philosophy

“At a time of great strife and fundamentalism, it is imperative to understand different religious traditions with academic clarity. Scriptural reasoning is a beautiful practice that allows Jewish, Muslim, and Christian thinkers to address the topics that lie at the core of humanity with a clarity of thought and an openness of heart. The first comprehensive book on SR’s history, technique, and application, Goodson guides us into a new way to have old conversations.”
