They have proven themselves adept at articulating the truth, beauty, and explanatory power of the biblical worldview. Their application of the biblical worldview to the task of Christian philosophy reflects the richness, nuance, and breadth we have come to expect from these seasoned guides. A wise book indeed!\"\u003cbr\u003e--\u003cb\u003ePaul Copan\u003c\/b\u003e, Palm Beach Atlantic University \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Bartholomew and Goheen have produced a clear, comprehensive, and vibrant case for Christian philosophy. Their book is an ideal text for thoughtful Christians of any age but especially for students or professors in a university context in which Christianity faces serious, sometimes hostile challenges from a secular culture. This book offers a balanced, compelling framework and line of reasoning that bring to light the intellectual power and integrity of Christian philosophy.\"\u003cbr\u003e--\u003cb\u003eCharles Taliaferro\u003c\/b\u003e, St. Olaf College\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCraig G.
