Galatians For You, as might be suspected, is a commentary on the book of Galatians. Timothy Keller's aim with the book is to offer a bible centered, Christ glorifying, relevantly applicable, and easily readable look at the book in question. The key point of Galatians for Keller is the fact that "the gospel is the … Continue reading Book Review: Galatians For You – Tim Keller
Much has been written trying to explain the psychology of theism. The foundational text in that field is probably Sigmund Freud's The Future of An Illusion, where Freud theorizes that religion came about as a sort of coping mechanism; it was comforting for early man to personalize the forces of nature and to turn their chiefs … Continue reading Book Review: The Psychology of Atheism – By R.C. Sproul
During the past few centuries within discussions of philosophy there has been what might be called a revitalization of skepticism. This skepticism, what many deem free inquiry or free thought, has come to question everything, such that during the early Twentieth Century G.K Chesterton wrote that: “It is vain for eloquent atheists to talk of … Continue reading Book Review: The Abolition of Man – By C.S. Lewis
Here we have before us one of the monoliths of Christian literature in the 20th Century, C.S. Lewis, whose impact through his writings no doubt rivals those of individuals we would consider much 'greater' than him. He wrote prolifically over every subject both in fiction and nonfiction and this book is one which tows the … Continue reading Book Review: The Great Divorce – By C.S. Lewis

More specifically, the goal of this text is to solve the intellectual problem of suffering; this is important, as … Continue reading Book Review: The Problem of Pain – By C.S. Lewis
The Case for Christianity is one of three books which would later be compiled into C.S. Lewis' classic exposition of the faith, Mere Christianity. On its own, the book is a discourse on morality, specifically the moral argument for God. Two snippets from the text serve well to sum up the argument being made by … Continue reading Book Review: The Case for Christianity – By C.S. Lewis

One of the earliest Christian … Continue reading Tertullian and Philosophy – Rationalist, Fideist, Apologist?
C.S. Lewis is one of those authors who I know I can always go to for a good read. Sometimes - many times - I disagree with him, but it's always a good read, and most times he has some brilliant insights. But most of the time he's writing in the style of an academic, … Continue reading Book Review: A Grief Observed – By C.S. Lewis
G.K. Chesterton - despite his great girth - is somehow often overlooked in contemporary discussion. Yet if you should take up most any book of his and read you will find that he is still a wonderful treasure trove of insight into the world. Chesterton was a massive influence on Christianity during the early 20th … Continue reading Chesterton’s Apologetic & The World Today
