    Three Marks of Protestant Identity

    Rob Price — 

    For all the variety of Protestantism, we share a core identity.

    From the Dean

    Why Doesnt the Bible Speak to Me?

    Weekly Q & A with Dr. William Lane Craig

    William Lane Craig — 

    ... Before I address your questions, Marc, let me say how much I admire you for your willingness to allow your son to follow, if he desires, religious convictions different than your own and not to forbid him. What you would be depriving him of exactly, should you forbid him to follow the path of Christian discipleship, is freedom of conscience and freedom of religious expression, which, Im sure youll agree, are pretty fundamental rights ...

    The Trinity Solves the First Philosophical Question about Reality

    Sean McDowell — 

    How is there both unity and diversity in reality? Why is there both change and sameness over time? According to Frederick Copleston, in his massive ten-volume A History of Philosophy, these questions relate to the first philosophical issue people wrestled with, which is often called the problem of the one and the many.
