James F. Lewis

Blessed Unbeliever

Fiction

“James Hurd’s creative pen touches me as he lays bare Sean McIntosh’s soul struggles. Raised in a fundamentalist church, McIntosh enrolls in Torrey Bible Institute’s flight school only to washout. Classroom responses to honest doubts fail to arrest McIntosh’s descent into atheism and a climactic act of blasphemy. This is not a feel-good novel of Christian triumph, but a true-to-life account of overcoming spiritual anomie.”

Christian Theology and Religious Pluralism

Theology

“"David Nah systematically weakens John Hick's paradigms offered in solution to problems of twentieth-century religious pluralism . . . [Nah's] work fills an unmet need for a more extensive assessment of Hick's last and most mature theology of religions. The tone is irenic rather than disputational and even religious others will find in Nah a friend who, contra-Hick, takes with metaphysical, not merely metaphorical seriousness, their claims of Ultimacy.”
