You will not improve as a reader if all you read are books that are well withinyour capacity. You must tackle books that are beyond you, or, as we have said, books that are over your head. Only books of that sort will make you stretch your mind. And unless you stretch, you will not learn.

My hope is that this blog will help and challenge Christians to think carefully about the implications of their worldview.

It is a great book. I really enjoyed taking the class that you taught on the book!
Thanks, Lloyd.
I’ve also learned a lot from Adler & Van Doren.
