    From the Dean

    Clinton E. Arnold — 

    Sundoulos served us well for many years. But not everyone knew what the term sundoulos meant. As much as I like Greek, that is the danger of quoting it in your sermons, Bible studies and magazine names. Sundoulos is a fellow servant, and our intent is to be just that. We want to continue to serve you in the ministries where God has called you.

    Resurrections prior to the Worlds End?

    Weekly Q & A with Dr. William Lane Craig

    William Lane Craig — 

    Fact 4, Point 2 in your opening statement of the debate with Bart Ehrman: you state that Jewish views of the afterlife precluded having a glorified existence prior to the general resurrection. Yet, the accounts of the Transfiguration of Jesus, three disciples saw Moses and Elijah. Elijah, according to the account in Kings, never died, but Moses is recorded as having died at the end of Deuteronomy. Whether or not he was actually raised and glorified in the same sense they came to believe Jesus was, could they not have believed that to be the case? Apparitions of the dead (Samuel to Saul and the medium at En-dor) were not unknown in the OT ...

    5 Game-Changing Books to Read this Summer

    Sean McDowell — 

    I love reading. And what better time is there to read than summer? While there are certainly plenty of good books to read, here are five of my personal favorites. While they tend to be in the category of apologetics and culture, these books were all game changers for me that either led me to act or see the world differently ...

    King David in Archaeology

    Kenneth Way — 

    In his forthcoming summative book, called Beyond the Texts, the Syro-Palestinian archaeologist William G. Dever summarizes what is presently known about ancient Israel and Judah based primarily on the artifactsthe material culture that includes textual sources. One example is Devers portrait of the historical King David. He offers the following seven propositions about David that are inferred from archaeology and also converge with what is attested in biblical texts ...

    Who Is the "Fool" that Denies God? Not Who You Think

    Sean McDowell — 

    A few summers ago I was doing my Atheist Encounter at a large student Christian camp in the Midwest. While the interaction with the audience sometimes gets heated (since I role-play an atheist, after all) the students in this session were far testier and argumentative than normal ...

    What if? Questions

    Weekly Q & A with Dr. William Lane Craig

    William Lane Craig — 

    Dear Dr. Craig I have been a fan of your work for about 2 or 3 years now. I used to be an atheist until one of my Christian friends directed me to your website and now I would consider myself to be struggling with atheism/scientism and Christianity. The last few days an idea has shaken up my worldview and my trust that philosophy can prove the existence of God. I think I can best sum up the idea as such ...

    Creating a Place of Refuge

    Dave Keehn — 

    Summer movies are often the stories of heroes; whether real-life or Marvel速, both are super. These stories inspire as they entertain us. The problem is, most of the time, we are content with letting someone else be the hero. We are too busy, too passive, too self-absorbed, or too afraid of what would happen if we got involved; and so the people around us stay unknown to us and do not receive the help they need. The result is preconceived biases that isolate us from one another and a lack of care and compassion for those who need a place of refuge and relief ...

    Business as Ministry: Work as a Reflection of God

    Scott Rae — 

    All legitimate work in the world has intrinsic value and God calls men and women to be faithful in working in various arenas as their service to Him. Of course, there are some limits to this, since it would difficult to see how God could call someone to produce pornography or engage in the illegal drug trade. But excluding those exceptions, God calls people to work in business, not only because of what it accomplishes, but because it has value in and of itself to God. Business is the work of God in the world in the same way that being a pastor is the work of God in the church and in the same way that missionary service is the work of God on the mission field. All have value to God because of the value of the work done, and that work is an intrinsically good thing that has value as it's done with excellence ...

    Dualism, Non-Reductive Physicalism, and the Spiritualization of Death

    Steve Porter — 

    Recently I was in discussion with a friend who was concerned about the tendency of some Christians to spiritualize death and dying by appeal to the afterlife. To spiritualize death and dying is to utilize spiritual beliefs to avoid dealing with unwanted feelings over the loss of a loved one. I just try to think of how happy she is with Jesus. When we see him again in heaven it will seem like no time has passed. I am just glad shes finally at rest in Jesus arms. To spiritualize death and dying in these and other ways is a defense mechanism. It is a way to defend against experiencing some painful part of reality as it actually is ...

    El Pecado de la Adicci坦n al Trabajo

    Octavio Esqueda — 

    Cada vez estoy m叩s convencido que ser un trabajador obsesivo es la adicci坦n m叩s com炭n entre las personas que est叩n en el ministerio cristiano. Evidentemente esta condici坦n se presenta entre todas las personas sin importar su ocupaci坦n o religiosidad. De hecho en ingl辿s el t辿rmino workaholic ya forma parte del vocabulario com炭n ya que representa una realidad cada vez m叩s presente en nuestras sociedades. Pero es f叩cil convertirse en un trabajador obsesivo y disfrazar esta situaci坦n con piedad y buenas intenciones. De la misma manera es muy atractivo sumergirse en el trabajo y echarle la culpa a Dios o a la obra de Dios como excusa por esta situaci坦n ...

    Royally Bad Objections to the Kalm Cosmological Argument

    Weekly Q & A with Dr. William Lane Craig

    William Lane Craig — 

    Dr. Craig, I can't tell you how much of a blessing your work has been to me. You have been a great inspiration to me, and I consider you a fine example of what a Christian scholar should be. I have been listening to a series of lectures entitled "The Big Questions of Philosophy" published by The Great Courses in which Professor David K. Johnson of King's College attempts to answer philosophically some of life's biggest questions. Because of the growing popularity of these lectures (especially now that they have been made very affordable through Audible), I thought it might be beneficial to get your thoughts. Professor Johnson demonstrates a deep familiarity with Christian apologetics. So much so that the lectures could almost have been entitled, "An Unbelievers Guide to Christian Apologetics." That may be a little bit of an exaggeration but not by too much. He singles out Richard Swinburne, Alvin Plantinga, and yourself. I hope one day you might have time to produce a podcast debunking his claims in general, but for now I wanted to ask you about something in which he mentions you by name specifically ...

    Finding Favor and Extending Favor

    Dave Keehn — 

    Job interviews are a nerve-wracking ordeal. The feeling of being out of control regarding ones future leads to subservient postures in relationships. This was the situation the Moabite, Ruth, found herself in after returning with her mother in-law to Bethlehem (Ruth 1). However, in this amazing Biblical narrative is a posture of grace-seeking that is reminiscent of our seeking God; it is the God-action of finding favor in others that we should model in our working relationships ...

    Unleashing Your Potential as an Emerging Leader

    Many persons in vocational Christian service got their start by working with young people. Youth ministry is great preparation for future service in other capacities. But it is much more than that. Youth pastors have the potential to impact the world for Christ in a powerful way, because young people often make important decisions about their future lives under the influence of church mentors and student ministries workers ...

    A Story of Genesis 11: And He Walked West

    David Talley — 

    Everyone loves a story. I think that is one of the reasons the Old Testament is primarily a story. However, many of the stories of the Old Testament often lack the kind of details that help you understand the characters. A good practice for you is to think through certain stories of the Old Testament and seek to create some depth to the characters. Of course, you have take some freedom and read between the lines, but it can be a lot of fun and very enriching to you and others. It can also serve as a discussion starter. I am offering you one such story based on Genesis 11. I simply try to draw the reader further into what it was like to be a character in the story. Happy reading ...

    Weekly Q & A with Dr. William Lane Craig

    William Lane Craig — 

    Dear Dr. Craig, I became a believer last year after one of your books helped remove an obstacle to my faith. Ive studied the Bible on and off for roughly 10 years, but I now have a renewed sense of urgency and desire for diving deeper into scripture and theology. But I dont know where to start with theology (apart from Defenders). I was raised in a non-religious family and have little background knowledge on the different denominations and theological schools of thought in Christendom. The huge number of theology books available make it seem impossible to know what to choose. Do you have any suggestions for systematic theology texts (and anything else you might think helpful)? ...

    When God Moves Your Heart

    Dave Keehn — 

    Where does inspiration come from? Where does the motivation to use ones gifts and passions to make a difference begin? Jane Goodall said, What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make. Are we the source of action or does that spark come from something else? I would like to propose God is the beginning of movements that bring change; history is the record of mankinds response to the divine prompting ...
