Why Christian Faith Still Makes Sense: A Response to Contemporary Challenges - Paperback
by C. Stephen Evans (Author), Craig Evans (Editor), Lee McDonald (Editor)
In recent years the Christian faith has been challenged by skeptics, including the New Atheists, who claim that belief in God is simply not reasonable. Here prominent Christian philosopher C. Stephen Evans offers a fresh, contemporary, and nuanced response. He makes the case for belief in a personal God through an exploration of natural "signs," which open our minds to theistic possibilities and foster belief in the Christian revelation. Evans then discusses why God's self-revelation is both authoritative and authentic. This sophisticated yet accessible book provides a clear account of the evidence for Christian faith, concluding that it still makes sense to believe.
Why Christian Faith Still Makes Sense is part of the Acadia Studies in Bible and Theology series. Series editors are Craig A. Evans and Lee Martin McDonald.
"Decades of first-rate philosophical scholarship and deep Christian reflection on the faith are here pressed with astonishing delicacy into an elixir of apologetics. Evans brilliantly summarizes a wide range of arguments on behalf of the rationality of the Christian religion, but he also offers a trio of arguments from miracles, 'paradoxicality, ' and existential power that sings a much fresher and more vital song than the grim, thin plaint of the New Atheists. Highly recommended for classrooms, small groups, personal consideration, and friendly discussion with your favorite atheist."C. Stephen Evans (PhD, Yale University) is University Professor of Philosophy and Humanities at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, and a Professorial Fellow at the Institute for Religion and Critical Inquiry at Australian Catholic University. He is the author or editor of more than two dozen books and is a widely traveled speaker.
