Faith Reborn: A Personal Apologetics by Doug Erlandson
152 pages, 3 of 3 reviews are 4 or 5-star, Lending Enabled
In his preface to Faith Reborn: A Personal Apologetics, philosopher and theologian Doug Erlandson argues that while the arguments typically presented in Christian apologetics are important, “it is also important that we discover how and why real people come to have a particular worldview.”
To this end he presents the story of why, though raised in an evangelical Christian home, he became a “scientistic materialist” while an undergraduate at Wheaton College and how, after twelve years of wandering through atheism, pantheism, and panentheism, he again became a Christian during his seventh year as a philosophy professor at the University of Nebraska while discussing Romans Chapter 9 with a former student.
Throughout the book he weaves his autobiographical account of the factors that led him to question his non-Christian worldview around a serious presentation of Christian apologetics. Among the topics he covers are the design and cosmological arguments for the existence of God, the difficulties with the evolutionist account of the origin and proliferation of the species, how he wrestled with and finally made peace with the idea of God’s sovereignty over the universe, why he came to believe in the reliability and inspiration of Scripture despite having accepted the “higher” critical view for many years, why materialism cannot explain either the nature or the origin of the mind, and why many of the traditional Christian responses to the problem of evil are unpersuasive and why we must approach the issue from a theocentric perspective. Dr. Erlandson also relates his fascination with and study of probability theory to the evidence for the bodily resurrection of Christ and shows how his study of the relationship between probability and rationality caused him to see the genius of Pascal’s Wager. The last two chapters of Faith Reborn include a frank discussion of his moments of lingering doubt and how that Wager has not only served to strengthen his faith but also the context in which it can be rightly used as an important apologetical tool.
