John Frame is retiring, and now you can have all six of his best and most important books for $120. Hardbacks. This is killer. I paid much more. Do not miss this deal: $20 a book for some of the best theology books you will ever buy. The Doctrine of the Knowledge of...

Is Science the Best Way to Know?
Not long ago, popular YouTube science guy Derek Muller of Veritasium put out a video detailing the myriad ways in which scientific studies go wrong. He titled it, "Is Most Published Research Wrong?" He ends with these words (click here to skip to this portion of the...
Stanley Fish on the Foundations Baptist Fellowship and American Protestant Fundamentalism More Generally
Readers of my blog know that I have a strong (and perhaps strange) affinity for Stanley Fish, the pragmatic, antifoundationalist literary theorist and classic public intellectual gadfly. I find him always stimulating and incisive, even when I disagree. But because his...
An Admitteldy One-Sided Conversation on Theological Liberalism
A liberal Catholic with a PhD from a liberal Catholic institution saw my article in Answers Magazine critiquing one of the more famous put-downs Richard Dawkins has made of Christians; he liked the article and wanted to dialogue with me. I acquiesced, but soon found...
Denying What Anyone Can See
Here's what strikes me about this oft-shared-on-my-timeline video: Christians (and creationists in particular) have been roundly criticized by scientific naturalism for denying "what anyone can see with their two eyes," for denying the "clear evidence" against the...
Freedom from Inerrancy?
X, a friend of a friend, wrote an autobiographical tale of his journey from Protestant fundamentalism to the evangelical parachurch and into a (currently) non-inerrantist, post-evangelical view which is indebted to people like Kenton Sparks and Peter Enns. I won't...
Al Mohler Talks to Stanley Fish
I love Stanley Fish, and I was thrilled to find this morning in my podcast feed that he has showed up again on Al Mohler's "Thinking in Public." I was even more thrilled as I listened on the bus—at single speed, so I didn't miss a thing, an honor I rarely show my...
Colin Gunton on Frameworks of Belief
All interpretation is shaped by the frameworks of belief which we bring to it; the hope is that the text—or rather the Holy Spirit’s opening up of the text—will enable us both to use and to transcend those frameworks with ever new insights into the truth of the...

Biblical Worldview: Creation, Fall, Redemption now has a promo page on bjupress.com. If you haven't yet purchased a copy, you will want to do so now that there is a promo page. Bryan Smith, the presenter on the video there, is the one whose vision I was trying to live...

Article in Answers Magazine
I originally wrote this article for the New York Times opinion page, but it wound up in a slightly less partisan publication, Answers Magazine. (To be clear, the article has been edited a bit to reflect the change of audience.) I just got my copy: [gallery...
Biblical Worldview: Creation, Fall, Redemption
I finally got my copy. It's the culmination of my nine years at BJU Press and the one book of mine most likely to actually get read: Biblical Worldview: Creation, Fall, Redemption, a 12th grade Bible textbook for Christian and home schools. But I can't say the book is...
