The Christian Moral Life is a guide for moral theology that uses the theme of a journey to explain its key ethical concepts.

No philosophical writings have survived from Hypatia (died, 415 CE), the most famous woman philosopher of the ancient world, but that does not imply that we cannot reconstruct in considerable detail what she likely taught. Socrates Scholasticus tells us that she taught the philosophy of Plato and Plotinus, that is, the philosophy we now call Neoplatonism or Late Platonism. Moreover, later philosophers do not report that she made any radical innovations in this philosophical tradition, and so it is likely she taught the “textbook Neoplatonism” of her time. Indeed, as professors still do ...

Familiarity can dull the senses, anesthetizing us to the prophetic nature and revelatory meanings found in the Book of Ruth. The story of Ruth was, is, and is yet to come if we are willing to accept it. Many of us grew up on the children’s church version of Ruth. The one that came with coloring pages and dot-to-dot pictures, which painted a broad stroke over the book, and allowed a numbness to form when we heard it read. In children's church it was simply a beautifully told, perfectly wrapped, romanticized Cinderella tale of Ruth, the servant girl, who falls in love and marries the ...

UN CONCEPTO CLAVE PARA LA ÉTICA, APOLOGÉTICA Y TEOLOGÍA PUBLICA! Como cristianos, afirmamos que las Escrituras son nuestra guía suprema hacia toda la verdad y la justicia (Sola Scriptura). Sin embargo, algunos desean ir más allá y afirmar que es nuestra única guía. ¿Pero cómo podemos explicar la notable perspicacia e integridad moral que muchos incrédulos parecen mostrar? De hecho, ¿cómo explicar las innumerables formas en que los propios creyentes navegan por el mundo basándose en el conocimiento y la intuición no siempre derivados exclusivamente de las Escrituras? ¡...

God or Nature, Whatever is what happens when a philosophy grad student decides to explain Baruch Spinoza—the 17th-century lens grinder who got canceled by every major religion—using sarcasm, swearing, and a deeply unhealthy relationship with Euclidean geometry. Sophia Blackwell takes Spinoza's Ethics (a book structured like a math textbook, only less fun) and translates it into plain, hilarious, possibly heretical English. The result? A philosophical roast that actually teaches you something. Inside, you'll learn: Why Spinoza thought God was just...

Wouldn’t you like to know if there’s a God? Not just think, hope, or believe that there is, but actually know for sure?

By the end of Esse Deum, you will be left with no more doubts or objections. Instead, you will know, as an undeniable scientific fact as certain as the equations of basic mathematics, that the Trinitarian God professed by Christianity most definitely exists. Unlike other contemporary ...

It is time to rethink the gospel. When the church of five hundred years ago started selling indulgences, it was time to rethink the gospel. Jesus repeatedly says “follow me” and his words instruct us concerning how to do that. Unfortunately, his words put us at odds with the world, so we invent doctrines that are merely things to believe in order to find ways around his words. When today’s Christianity is reduced to a gospel of material prosperity and the service of political issues like abortion and homosexuality, it is time to rethink the gospel and rediscover Jesus’ words. If one...

The streets are not the same. They are louder, angrier, restless. Brokenness echoes in every corner—shattered windows, shattered trust, shattered lives. You feel it when you step outside, when you turn on the news, when you scroll through endless debates and outrage. Chaos is no longer an event; it has become the atmosphere. And it is not only outside. It is in the air we breathe—fear, confusion, anxiety.
