Christian Apologetics, ch. 9
The first assigned chapter was chapter 9 entitled "In Defense of Theistic Arguments." I have long rejected the views of Van Til. So, reading this chapter was a little like nodding my head to the preacher from the choir. I appreciate the sincerity and care he uses to address the nine objections to natural theology. He is careful not to swing the pendulum too far in any direction. I was surprised to see him take on Plantinga (and therefore Calvin) in this chapter. This led me to chapter 3 where I did some reading on his critique of Reformed Epistemology (the view I hold). At any rate, his points are well taken and helped articulate views that I already hold myself. More work to be done on Reformed Epistemology (on my end), though.
