Doing philosophy as a Christian

What does it mean to be called to the profession of philosophy? What does it mean for the Christian in particular? And how should those called to the profession engage their tasks? Noting that philosophy literally is the love of wisdom, Garrett J. DeWeese begins with a discussion of wisdom from the Old and New Testaments before addressing the often misunderstood relation between faith and reason. DeWeese then elucidates the fundamental questions of metaphysics, epistemology, ethics and aesthetics, philosophy of mind and philosophy of science, finally making a case for the integration of philosophy and Christian spiritual formation.https://digitalcommons.biola.edu/faculty-books/1139/thumbnail.jp

God and the nature of time

Is God temporal, \u27in time\u27, or atemporal, \u27outside of time\u27? Garrett DeWeese begins with contemporary metaphysics and physics, developing a causal account of dynamic time. Drawing on biblical material as well as discussions of divine temporality in medieval and contemporary philosophical theology, DeWeese concludes that God is temporal but not in physical time as we measure it. Interacting with issues in the history of philosophy, contemporary philosophy of science, and philosophy of religion, this book offers students a thorough introduction to the key issues and key figures in historical and contemporary work on the philosophy of time and time in theology.https://digitalcommons.biola.edu/faculty-books/1140/thumbnail.jp

Philosophy made slightly less difficult : a beginner\u27s guide to life\u27s big questions

Moreland understand this frustration and in this book offer help to make philosophy at least slightly less difficult.
