    An Orientation to Four Pervading Themes of the Christian Life from Dallas Willard

    Klaus Issler — 

    Dallas Willard (1936-2013) has been one of the key evangelical interpreters and provocateurs regarding the important doctrine of formation into Christlikeness. Willard was professor of philosophy at the University of Southern California and a former Southern Baptist pastor. Sometimes due to Willard's spearheading the importance of spiritual practices among Protestants, he is viewed as having said little else on the topic of Christian formation (Richard Foster claimed that Willard was his mentor on that particular subject, in the acknowledgement section of Fosters classic book, Celebration of Discipline, HarperSan Francisco, 1978). But there is much more. ... Four pervading themes in Willards writings on Christian formation are briefly developed below, mainly with quotations from Willard.

    Married to Someone Who Finds My Studies an Annoyance

    William Lane Craig — 

    Dear, Dr. Craig, As one who has recently discovered the realm of apologetics in the past couple years, you were one of the first I had come to know, and it has been a pleasure reading some of your material and watching your debates. I am currently only a junior in college and am studying philosophy and religious studies and love it, and hope to attend seminary in the future and get my masters in apologetics, God willing. My question for you is not necessarily a theological or philosophical question but a question that I am hoping I could get some pastoral advice from you about that I feel you are perhaps the best suited to answer. I recently got married this past summer to an amazing woman I met at a one year bible college I attended a couple years ago and it has been great. But between transferring to a new (secular) school and being constantly busy with school and work I feel like my relationship with God is constantly on the backburner, as I am not getting into the word nearly as much as I used to and my prayer life is nearly nonexistent, and because of this my relationship with my wife is not where it should be either ...

    Have We Been Sold a Homiletical Bill of Goods? (Alliteration, Part 1)

    Don Sunukjian — 

    This series of blogs will look at some dubious practices that have entered our preaching. All of these questionable traditions are addressed in Talbots Doctor of Ministry track in Advanced Biblical Preaching. ... Alliteration, in ordinary writing, is the literary device of repeating the same initial sound or letter several times in rather close succession (e.g. conspicuous consumption, nattering nabobs of negativism). In preaching, alliteration is most frequently used to convey the major outline points of a sermon. There are times, of course, when alliteration is appropriate and effective in preaching ... But when a sermon outline extends to multiple main points, the use of alliteration runs the risk of four bad things.

    Prayer for Benjamin Netanyahus Speech before the US Congress

    Mitch Glaser — 

    This morning Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will address the United States Congress. We believe he will argue against the United States joining a number of major European powers in signing an agreement with Iran that would temporarily limit the development of nuclear grade enriched uranium and allow for the production of non-nuclear grade material.

    Incarnation and Omniscience

    William Lane Craig — 

    Dear Dr. William Lane Craig, ... My question is about the model of the Incarnation you and J.P. Moreland present in Philosophical Foundations for a Christian Worldview, which states that many of the divine attributes of Jesus were located in his subconsciousness. I'm having a problem with this. Maximal greatness would seem to me to imply having access to any and all knowledge on the spot, which would in turn seem to imply that God would have omniscience in His consciousness, where all the knowledge can be directly accessed. Can you please clear this up for me?

    What is the Point of Prayer?

    William Lane Craig — 

    Dear Dr Craig, I have recently moved on from Christianity to agnosticism, but I regularly check out your Q and A section as much of the content there is more sensible and thought provoking than the kind of thing I hear from a lot of Evangelicals ... Currently it seems to me that the idea of prayer is most sensibly explained as an addictive placebo that gives people a greater sense of control over their circumstances than they actually have. But just maybe there's something crucial I've missed, and if so I would be grateful if you could point out what that might be ...

    多Qui辿n Puede Tener Acceso a Dios? Salmo 15 / Psalm 15

    Octavio Esqueda — 

    Disfrutar de una relaci坦n 鱈ntima con el Dios del universo es el prop坦sito principal del ser humano. En Dios encontramos respuesta y sentido a nuestras vidas. El salmo 15 describe al tipo de persona que puede relacionarse personalmente con el Creador. El salmista se pregunta qui辿n puede ser un hu辿sped de Dios. En esa cultura, un hu辿sped gozaba de acceso directo con el anfitri坦n. Este salmo de sabidur鱈a se entonaba al entrar al templo. Los adoradores iniciaban con la pregunta y el sacerdote respond鱈a con los requisitos y finalizaba con una promesa para aquellos que los cumpl鱈an.

    You've Ruined My Life, Professor Craig!!

    William Lane Craig — 

    "... I am now stuck in a nihilistic-atheistic world that I hate. Agnosticism is not even a coherent position to me, with regards to a Perfect Being, since I believe that the greatest conceivable being could give me knowledge of its existence, if it wanted to. Theism is a dream come true. The world would make sense, the existential mysteries that haunt me would be solved, life would be livable. It is atheism, however, which seems to be true, yet I do not want to live like this. I have become depressed to no end. I have been in a nihilistic rut for years now. I have become utterly recluse. Yet, even with all this, I cannot come to believe in God. What would YOU suggest I do? ..."

    Is the Applicability of Mathematics Necessary?

    William Lane Craig — 

    This is the weekly Q & A blog post by our Research Professor in Philosophy, Dr. William Lane Craig. Recently I listened to your argument from the applicability of mathematics on premier Christian radio as well as the debate you had with Alex Rosenberg. I'm not particularly knowledgeable when it comes to mathematics but I was intrigued by your comments on how the argument from the applicability of mathematics is similar to the argument from fine tuning ... Could it be that, as with the fine tuning argument, the applicability of mathematics might be explained by necessity? ...

    Visits to Heaven and Hell, Part Two

    Alan Gomes — 

    In the last twenty years, many individuals claim to have visited heaven or hell and have written vivid accounts of what they purport to have seen. What should we make of these stories? Should they form a basis for our faith? Might they supplement or enhance the convictions that we already have? How do we evaluate such claims and what is their practical use even if true?

    Divine Concurrence

    William Lane Craig — 

    This is the weekly Q & A blog post by our Research Professor in Philosophy, Dr. William Lane Craig. Dr. Craig, I recently listened to your Podcast from the Defenders class on God's concurrence (Defenders 2, Doctrine of Creation: Part 8). At the outset, you explained that God is the cause of everything because he concurs in it. As an attorney, this made an abundant amount of sense to me. In the law (particularly in tort), an omission (or failure to act) can be the cause of something in the same way that an affirmative act can. Of course, we would only impose liability where the omission is accompanied by some legal duty to act, but that inquiry is wholly separate from the causation inquiry ...

    Mensajeros de Paz y Reconciliaci坦n

    Octavio Esqueda — 

    Las noticias a nuestro alrededor pueden ser bastante desalentadoras. Por alguna raz坦n las noticias que se publican y tienen promoci坦n tienden a ser las negativas y las que reflejan alg炭n conflicto social. Para los medios de comunicaci坦n y para la sociedad en general las buenas noticias parecieran no ser atractivas y solamente las negativas pueden salir de la sombra de lo cotidiano para llamar nuestra atenci坦n. Desgraciadamente, el estar rodeados de malas noticias origina un ambiente negativo en el que la vida pareciera una mara単a de conflictos que crece cada vez m叩s y a la que no se le encuentra soluci坦n por ning炭n lado. Si a esta situaci坦n le agregamos los actos de terrorismo de grupos radicales que se escudan en la religi坦n para cometer atentados deleznables contra inocentes y las posturas tan radicales de pol鱈ticos y grupos sociales que impiden una sana conversaci坦n para resolver sus diferencias, es f叩cil caer en la desesperanza y la impotencia.

    Ockhams Razor

    William Lane Craig — 

    This is the weekly Q & A blog post by our Research Professor in Philosophy, Dr. William Lane Craig: ... my question today refers to Lee Strobel book "The Case for a Creator". There was one part in the book where Strobel asked you "why does it have to be One Creator?" And you responded by saying "my opinion, Ockham's Razor would shave away any additional Creators." So my question today is in 3 questions: Define what is Ockham's Razor? How does this (scientific) principle or theory eliminate the need for extra gods? How does Ockham's Razor prove the existence of One God? ...
