Apologetics, Imagination, and Imaginative Apologetics
In earlier posts,
I set the framework for the core material in Imaginative Apologetics, seeking to provide the lay of the land in
contemporary apologetics and the faculty of imagination. Now we are engaging the individual articles
in Andrew Davison’s edited volume, Imaginative
Apologetics: Theology, Philosophy and the Catholic Tradition.[1]
In the last two posts, we examined the
relationship between faith and reason, and apologetics & human imagination. In this post, on to the third of four major
sections of the work. As a reminder, you
can find my full treatment in Trinity
Journal.[2]
Being Imaginative about Christian Apologetics
Section three
(“Being Imaginative about Christian Apologetics”) of Imaginative Apologetics begins with, in
my opinion, the strongest essay of the compilation.
