June 20, 2013 by John Hundley 6 Comments

One month ago yesterday I walked the stage to pick up a diploma in Religious Studies at a secular institution. And I’m a stronger Christian than ever.

Is a Tenure-Track Job a Futile Dream?

April 23, 2013 by Micheal Hickerson 3 Comments

Probably. Last week, I addressed the question of whether graduate school was a path to certain doom. In the comments of that post, John questioned my use of statistics to show that people with Ph.D.s had relatively good job prospects in this economy. He shared a personal experience with trying to find a tenure-track faculty […]

Lenten Wrestling w/God, Natural Disaster, Suffering, Good, Evil

IVP. 2011), but also an extended discussion of “How Could A Good God Allow Suffering” (Chapter 2 of Tim Keller’s “The Reason for God: Belief in An Age of Skepticism.” Dutton/Penguin. 2008).
