A Christian Mathematician’s Apology: Thinking Christianly

May 14, 2021 by Matt Lunsford 1 Comment

When Matt Lunsford decided to write on what it means to be a Christian in Mathematics, he modeled his extended essay, A Christian Mathematician’s Apology, after an earlier essay, A Mathematician’s Apology, by G.

Scholarship of the Bible and the Church

July 11, 2013 by Daniel McCurdy 4 Comments

Recently, I read Peter Enns’ book The Evolution of Adam. I found it to be a rather interesting read, and a helpful addition to the field. One idea that Enns uses in understanding the Bible is the calibration of various parts of the Bible so that we can know what to expect from that particular […]
