A Christian Guide to the Things that Really Matter
Intended for students without prior training in philosophy, An Introduction to Philosophy includes both an overview of key subject areas and questions in philosophy and consideration of everyday implications of philosophical concerns.

Designed for students in Christian colleges and seminaries, An Introduction to Philosophy surveys the four main areas of philosophy - logic, metaphysics, epistemology, and ethics - in an accessible and engaging manner. Yet, it also covers important topics sometimes left unaddressed in introductions, including:

• why philosophy matters in our day
• critical thinking and intellectual virtue
• a brief history of philosophy
• philosophical hermeneutics
• the relationship between philosophy, faith, and worldview
• religious epistemology
• bioethics, sexual ethics, other types of ethics
• a Christian philosophy of life

Grounded in the Christian intellectual tradition, each chapter in An Introduction to Philosophy includes student-friendly features such as chapter summaries, explanatory sidebars, reflection questions, vocabulary words and definitions, and suggestions for further reading. Professors and students will find it to be a broad and useful overview, perfect for undergraduate and seminary students alike.
