Theology
“In this accessible and timely book, veteran Christian philosopher and apologist R. C. Sproul (along with theologian Keith Mathison) exposes the absurd lengths to which many skeptical scientists and philosophers have gone to avoid the conclusion that the universe and the things in it are the handiwork of the Triune God of the historic Christian faith. With his notorious wit and incisive argumentation, Dr. Sproul shows the reader that chance is not an entity that can cause anything, that a self-creating universe is a self-contradiction, and that the only reasonable explanation for the existence of anything is that God exists. Every Christian who wants to make an effective defense for his or her faith should read this book.”
Four Views on Christianity and Philosophy
Philosophy
“What has Jerusalem to do with Athens?” Tertullian’s famous question about the relationship between Christianity and philosophy has been variously answered by thinkers throughout the centuries. Some, like Tertullian, have believed that philosophy is incompatible with Christian faith. Others, like Augustine and Aquinas, have seen them as compatible yet in different ways and to varying degrees. Four Views on Christianity and Philosophy explores this topic of perennial concern, utilizing the skill of some of the best philosophers in the field. Each contributor addresses the nature and methods of philosophy, the nature of Christian commitment, the relationship between faith and reason, and the value and extent of evidence for and against the Christian worldview. Ideal for classroom use or personal study, for anyone interested in answering Tertullian’s famous question, this book is the place to start.”
Philosophy
“Jason Crowder has produced a very readable and practical primer on philosophy. While admitting the dangers and limitations of philosophy, he nonetheless demonstrates its benefits and even necessity for Christian discipleship of a biblically grounded and theologically informed pursuit of philosophical inquiry. Philosophy, Who Needs It? will be a great resource for Christian pastors, students, and laypersons.”
Pursuing Excellence for the Glory of God
Discipleship & Christian Education
“Currivean has masterfully presented and defended a Christian philosophy of education. Situating that philosophy in the broader history of educational theory and practice, he demonstrates the value and superiority of a truly Christian approach to learning. This book will be an invaluable resource to the church and to Christian educators.”
