Explore how authority grounds knowledge, history, and faith in a thoughtful, rigorous way.
This book analyzes how we know what we know, why witnesses matter, and how religious and philosophical claims survive modern scrutiny.
Two essays anchor the discussion: the role of original authorities in history and the power of the cross as the center of Christian authority. It contrasts historical methods with theological claims, showing how facts and witness shape belief without surrendering critical judgment.- Clarifies how authority functions across conscience, reason, and testimony
- Panels the debate between historic Christianity and competing modern interpretations
- Demonstrates how truth, evidence, and faith interact in historical and religious inquiry
- Offers a framework for evaluating sources, witnesses, and ultimate authority
