The two recently had a discussion on the Unbelievable show. Here's the link to the extended discussion. Well worth a watch.
At around 43mins into the discussion Stanley asks Jeff why he believes what he believes, what is the foundation of his faith. Jeff responds "the Word of the Living God". Is that a satisfactory answer? It has its context in the conversation and I see where he's coming from. But do we not have to parse out: why we believe; how believe; in Whom we believe; how we come to the knowledge of Whom we believe?
Another question that I had, which is alluded to in the conversation but not quite in these terms, is: what is the difference between the presup. apologetic and straight evangelism?
Anyway, definitely worth watching.
