In this episode, Dr. Davis reads short selections from his 2006 book Christian Philosophical Theology (Oxford University Press). As he said in our interview, this book is probably the best place to look for his mature views. Hopefully Oxford University Press will someday release this in paperback and electronic versions.He addresses John Hick's and others' "minimal christology" on which Jesus is merely a wise teacher, a guru, the peer of others like the Buddha, the importance of Jesus' resurrection, and his methodology regarding remaining faithful to mainstream Christian orthodoxy. He contrasts two broad religious worldviews, which he calls "Karma" and "Grace." He affirms that God can literally be wrathful. He discusses his understanding of the resurrection to which Christians look forward, and contrasts it with opposing views. He explains his view that the Bible is not inerrant but rather infallible,These are just bite-sized pieces. A good philosopher, he argues for his conclusions, and answers objections to his claims. The selections focus mostly on his claims; for his offense and defense or behalf of these claims, you'll have to read the book.Thanks to Dr. Davis for his readings!You can also listen to this episode on Stitcher or iTunes (please subscribe, rate, and review us in either or both – directions here).

Davis on the occasion of the start of his phased retirement from Claremont McKenna College (and the Claremont Graduate University).We discuss his advice for Christians going into philosophy, his views on the most important work done in recent Christian philosophy that most Christians don't know about, his advice on writing, and his own work in philosophy.Have you ever read one of those "Four Views" (or three, five, etc.) books? Steve Davis has something to do with that! He explains here.At the end of the episode, I and some others share how we appreciate Steve and his work.
