Christian Philosophy AZ cover

This book explores key figures and issues in Christian philosophy, from Augustine to today, providing insights for both students and believers.

This volume serves as a comprehensive guide to the significant figures and key issues in Christian philosophy, spanning from Augustine to contemporary thinkers. Christian Philosophy AZ delves into a broad historical context while also acknowledging the influence of non-Christian philosophers who have shaped the Christian intellectual tradition. It emphasizes the challenges faced by Christian philosophers as they navigate the intersection of faith and reason, exploring how philosophical inquiry can enhance their understanding of belief.

Within Christian Philosophy AZ, readers will encounter a variety of thought-provoking topics, such as the nature of divine foreknowledge, the epistemological questions surrounding God's existence, and the relationship between philosophical thought in Athens and theological principles in Jerusalem. The book highlights the contributions of notable figures who have revitalized Christian analytic philosophy, including Alvin Plantinga, Nicholas Wolterstorff, William Alston, and Robert Adams, providing insights into their arguments and perspectives.

This guide is not only beneficial for students of Christian philosophy but also for individuals within the Christian community who wish to engage with their faith in a more philosophical manner. By addressing both historical and contemporary issues, Christian Philosophy AZ invites readers to reflect deeply on their beliefs and the philosophical questions that arise in their pursuit of understanding.
