My books

The books which are available for download on this website are the result of my work as a Christian philosopher. In the books which constitute the main part of my work, I have, on the one hand, attempted to develop a Christian theology, a Christian science, and a Christian ethics. On the other hand, I have attempted to show that God may be known historically, that nature may be understood scientifically, and that the laws for goodness may be imagined.

As I have written the books which constitute the main part of my work, I have become convinced that my writing should be guided by Jesus’ intention that all Christians may be one. Although I have developed a Christian theology, a Christian science, and a Christian ethics with which I am personally satisfied, I have attempted to preserve agreement between Christians wherever I could and I have attempted to resolve disagreements between Christians wherever I could. Again, in attempting to show that God may be known historically, that nature may be understood scientifically, and that the laws for goodness may be imagined, I have attempted to establish a basis for agreement between Christians.

I have also written two books which address what seem to me to be the two deepest disagreements between Christians. In the first book I address the question of whether or not there is a being who has caused miracles and in the second book I assume that God exists and I address the question of whether or not God is the origin of the Bible.
