Book review: The Death of Truth, editor Dennis McCallum, Baker Book Publishers
Christianity and Christian ethics are under attack as never before. But so often, we are like a blind-folded child in a party game: we know someone is hitting us, but we don’t understand who, why, or the nature of the attack. This book is probably the best available for explaining ‘postmodernism’. Don’t be put off by this technical term! It really just means ‘mood of the age’.

Why can't I live my life as an agnostic? - Faith Facts
Of course one may live as an agnostic. But we hope to show the atheist or agnostic that without God, moral judgments or any type of ethics are meaningless. And if God exists, agnosticism is eternally unwise. Read more....

The Moral Law
The argument for a moral law is one of the most persuasive arguments in favor of God's existence. It was the basis for much of the writing of C.S. Lewis. What makes the moral law so interesting is that we need not consult any ancient texts or religious doctrine, we need only to look inside ourselves
