For Christians seeking to understand philosophy's role

Clarifies the relationship between faith and philosophy

You will confidently defend your beliefs with knowledge

This book explores how philosophy aligns with Christian theology.

A philosophy has to have an anchor if it is to be meaningfully discussed. If God exists, then philosophy must be subservient to theology, says Dr. K. Scott Oliphint, demonstrating that only when we begin with God and his word can we perform true philosophy.

Written to equip and strengthen laypeople in their defense of the faith, Apologia (edited by Peter Lillback and Steve Huff) challenges contemporary opposition to Christianity with concise, practical answers.

"Scott Oliphint's 'Christianity and the Role of Philosophy' will be tough going for some readers. But for those able to understand philosophical writing and who desire a knowledgeable Christian summary of the main issues, this book will be helpful. Oliphint's main illustration is very illuminating: when you're trying to find your way in a strange place, it is better to have a GPS than a mere road map. So philosophy (which, unlike other sciences, never seems to make real progress) needs a view from above; it needs to accept guidance from the revelation of God. Oliphint gives us some examples of how God's word provides clarity and cogency to the philosopher's task."- John Frame, Reformed Theological Seminary, Florida
