Alistair McGrath on Christianity and Intellect

A 1-hour lecture by the Rev. Dr. Alistair McGrath. Given that one (to wit, me) needs to investigate the R2K issues and Rev. Frame's new book, Escondido Theology (due here 28 Feb-6 Mar) that are percolating in the Confessionally Reformed world, here is Alistair McGrath, a thoughtful and well-published Prayer Book Anglican. Alistair formerly taught at Wycliffe College, Oxford University.  Clearly, this is not suitable to Baptacostalists and other anti-intellectuals.

Alister McGrath on Christianity and the Discipleship of the Mind

A lecture by Alister McGrath at the Lanier Theological Library on the way in which the Christian faith can engage and transform the mind:



Here is a description:

In his . . . recent book, The Passionate Intellect: Christian Faith and the Discipleship of the Mind, Alister McGrath discusses theology as a discipline that not only informs and sustains the Christian vision of reality, but also serves a passion of the mind to understand God’s nature and ways. While proposing that vibrant theology can have a positive impact on Christian life, worship and faith, McGrath also explores other benefits of theology that include a deeper engagement with the culture and concerns of the modern world.
