The idea for Reason & Faith has been brewing for quite some time in my mind, and I'm glad I'm actually taking the time to begin. I have been confronted with good, honest questions concerning my faith and trust in the Bible, and in Historical Christianity, and ultimately in Christ Himself, for as long as I've been a Christian, which is going on 16 years now. In my quests to answer these questions for my own benefit, I've been lucky enough to discover some of the greatest writings ever put on paper. What I've come to find, is that there is rarely anything asked or pointed out, that has not already been confronted and dealt with from multiple angles and perspectives. There truly is "nothing new under the sun."
So if you're looking for something new, you probably won't find it here. Unless you consider abondoning rhetoric something new, that is. My goal here, is simply to educate on the arguments, on the texts and doctrines themselves which are being brought into question, and to boldly confront those who slander Scripture and the person of Jesus Christ, out of simple misunderstanding at best, and out of vicious hatred for what I consider the blantant Truth at worst.
Where possible, I will keep the posts short and to the point. Where a point requires more attention I will try to break it up into multiple posts. If at any time, you feel a subject requires more attention than I've given it, feel free to leave a comment asking questions, making counter-arguments, or simply pointing out where I may be mistaken in my point of view. I will always welcome a challenge.
At any rate, enjoy, and I hope you find this at least somewhat compelling, if not helpful.
