Calvinism and the Unliveability of Determinism
Dr. Craig, I wanted to thank you for your podcast, debates, and other work, all of which I've profoundly enjoyed and has exposed me to the intellectual richness within Christianity. As a former agnostic, one of the most powerful apologetic arguments again...

Does God Have a Finite Number of Preferences?
Dr. Craig, I appreciate how you are willing to face the biggest challenges to the Christian faith. You have inspired me to explore philosophy. Even though your work is impressive, I must say, I am still not convinced of the existence of God. In fact, I believ...
