Article- The Christian Mind by Jerry Soloman
The Need for a Christian Mind “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand” (Matt. 4:17).(1) This familiar admonition was first spoken by John the Baptist and soon after it was echoed by Jesus. The phrase is certainly worthy of a great deal of attention; it provides a lot of food for thought. For…

Article- A (Not So) Brief Defense of Christianity by Jimmy Williams
Introduction Faith Everybody has faith. From the meticulous scientist to the most irrational religious fanatic, everyone believes in something, and everyone acts on that belief somehow.

REblog- Win the Man Not the Argument by Douglas Wilson
by Douglas Wilson originally posted at theresurgence.com When the Lord Jesus called his disciples, he famously said that he was going to transform them into “fishers of men” (Mark 1:17).

Article- The Teleological Argument & the Anthropic Priniciple- by Dr. William Lane Craig
The discovery during our generation of the so-called anthropic coincidences in the initial conditions of the universe has breathed new life into the teleological argument. Use of the Anthropic Principle to nullify our wonder at these coincidences is logically fallacious unless conjoined with the metaphysical hypothesis of a World Ensemble. There are no reasons…

TLblog- The Kalam Cosmological Argument (Part 2- Philosophical Observations) by Rand Wagner
In my last post I began to argue for the Cause of the universe using the Kalam Cosmological Argument. The argument is basically this: that whatever begins to exist has a cause; the universe began to exist, the universe has a cause. In making the case for the beginning of the universe we start with the self evident…
