Description: Worldviews in Conflict by Ronald H. Nash In this book, Ronald Nash outlines the Christian way of looking at God, self, and the world, holding the Christian worldview up against the tests of reason, logic, and experience. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description This world is a battlefield in the arena of ideas. The prize is the heart and mind of humankind. In this book, Ronald Nash outlines the Christian way of looking at God, self, and the world. He holds that worldview up against the tests of reason, logic, and experience, particularly discussing the problems of evil and the alleged "nonsense" of the historic Christian doctrines and of Jesus incarnation and resurrection. He finds the Christian worldview sound and urges Christians to equip themselves intellectually to defend the faith on that battlefield. He particularly hits the attractions to our generation of naturalism and the New Age movement, pointing out their weaknesses and pitfalls as well as those of older worldviews. "Christian theism," he writes, "is a system that commends itself to the whole person"; but he stresses that a great difference exists between "belief that" and "belief in." Author Biography Ronald H. Nash (PhD, Syracuse University) was professor of philosophy at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. He was the author of numerous books, including The Concept of God and Faith and Reason. Table of Contents Contents Preface 1. What is a Worldview? 2. The Christian Worldview 3.
