Dr. Alister McGrath--Christian Apologetics: An Introduction--Why Believe in God?
With three doctorates from Oxford and over 50 books to his credit, Dr. Alister McGrath is well-equipped to discuss apologetics including core elements, the inference to the best explanation, Dawkins' demand for a proof, and points of contact including a sense of longing, the beauty of the world, the ordering of nature, a sense of wonder, a sense of moral obligation, existential anxiety, and the fine tuning of the universe. He then covers narrative apologetics, enlightenment rationalism, the alleged incompatibility of science and religion, and materialist reductionism. McGrath also considers several Christian thinkers including Chesterton, Lewis, Sayers, Schaffer, and Taylor. We finish up with a look at creation and evolution.
