Review # 2 was written on 2015-05-08 00:00:00 Mike Early I like RC, and I think he is a talented communicator. He conveys classical apologetics very well. It is not the most sophisticated classical apologetics book ever put between two covers, but I enjoyed it as the authors covered a number of important subjects. I recommend Dr. William Craig's "Reasonable Faith" for a more sophisticated Classical Apologetics book. Having Dr. Gerstner involved with this book makes for an excellent primer to get involved with the classical vs presuppositional apologetic debate. I recommend reading Dr. John Frame's response to this book in an article online after reading this book to help you decide for yourself for which "camp" you agree with. I, for one, am currently convinced of classical epistemology. *** Update: After a couple of years since my review, I have actually swapped sides to the presuppositional camp. Once one understands worldview analysis based on presuppositions, the dialectic between rationalism and irrationalism, transcendence and immanence, and seeing the three theories of truths of "perspectives" on Truth, (John Frame explains this so well in his The Doctrine of the Knowledge of God), it is hard to see the world the same way ever again. I recommend Frame's book highly for those who are interested in christian epistemology.
