Christian Philosophy : A Systematic And Narrative Introduction
$35.29
With good reason, many Christians tend to view philosophy with strong skepticism. But the discipline is still necessary and understanding it historically and how it function practically remain necessary. The apostle Paul admonished Christians in Rome to be “transformed” by the renewal of their minds, and as Christians in contemporary society we understand this as a change in ‘worldview’.
Whether we like the term ‘worldview’ or even philosophy itself, the truth is whenever we contemplate the world around us-not matter how complex or basic of a level we do this at-we are in fact philosophizing. How can this be done in a Christian way? In Christian Philosophy: A Systematic and Narrative Introduction Craig Bartholomew and Michael Goheen present a historical and narrative introduction to philosophy while also teaching the reader to formulate a philosophy based on the Christian intellectual tradition and the Bible itself.
Examining the nature of ‘worldview’ through the lenses of historic philosophical expression, Bartholomew and Goheen unpack how we develop our perspectives (realized and assumed), how those views change overtime, and then refer readers to what they believe is the most promising philosophical basis for a Christian worldview in the contemporary world.
