Summary: Philosophy 101 For Christians
Comment: Ronald Nash takes time to write a book that intends to educate Christians (and those seeking to learn about the Christian worldview). He begins with defining terms (like noetic structure) that help the reader come up to speed on philosophical terms they need to know. He quickly dives into defending the Christian worldview, where he weighs the evidence for and against the existence of God, which is followed by an excellent theodicy (which is defending the problem of evil with an all-good and powerful God). He discusses the possibility of miracles, the resurrection and a few other important issues.

If every Christian read this book, we would have more Christians prepared to give a defense of the hope that is within them. Many Christians complain that universities are filled with too many "liberal" or "atheist" instructors, yet they don't do anything to change that. Many Christians fail to educate themselves or their children. Use this book as an introduction to apologetics and philosophy. You will not be disappointed, even if you disagree with Nash's conclusions.

Summary: Good Intro to Christian Apologetics
Comment: Nash is a prominent Christian thinker and apologist. He is very lucid in his presentation and arguments and does a good job documenting the various views taken on the rationality of various religious beliefs.

Here he tackles some of the bigger questions: Existence of God, problem of evil, miracles, etc. He starts with worldview and then expandis this them.A good choice, since most have a worldview,this is conducive to many understanding where he is coming from and where he wants to take the reader in this journey of coupling the faith with philosophy.

Helpful intro with references for further study.

Summary: A thorough and well-reasoned Christian apologetic
Comment: In this book, Ronald Nash presents his Christian apologetic and worldview. Starting with his definition of a worldview and how a person should go about choosing one, Nash discusses everything from evidentialism to the miraculous, from the various theistic arguments to the problem of evil. The book is well-written and enjoyable to read from beginning to end.

By answering many of the questions philosophy asks, Nash shows that Christianity can not only assert itself as a reasonable worldview, but also surpass the reasonability of other belief systems. For those interested in learning how Christianity answers the great philosophical questions, this book is an excellent starting place.
