Dr. Craig's AUGUST Monthly Report on his studies, events, and RF.
Dear Friends of Reasonable Faith,
Ever since I became a Christian as a teenager, I’ve longed to make a difference in the world for Christ, to have an impact for the Kingdom of God. You can imagine, then, how gratified and encouraged—not to say bowled over!—I was to learn that Academic Influence has ranked me as the tenth most influential philosopher in the world over the last three decades (1990-2020)! What is especially significant is that these rankings are not just someone’s subjective opinion but are computed according to an algorithm that takes into account such objective data as number of citations of one’s work. According to Forbes magazine,....
The 10th and 7th most influential philosophers 1990-2020.
I recently started following a YouTube channel that covers quite the variety of content. A video that instantly caught my eye was titled, "Was Jesus Actually Resurrected". Being from a rather secular topical channel I just had to click on it and check it out. It turns out that the video seemed fairly unbiased to either side and covered the arguments for and against the Resurrection of Christ. Listening to the narrator deal with the so called "issues" that atheists bring up a thought struck me; "These are almost word for word explanations that Bill uses to do away with these so called problems against the resurrection". So, I instantly checked the works cited link in the description and sure enough, your content from debates with people like Dr. Ehrman and previous talks at colleges were plentious in the works cited. How awesome is it, I thought, that your work is being used to defend the historicity of Christ's resurrection on a YouTube channel with over 10 million subscribers! Thank you for all your work and the endless content that I get to absorb to be a better warrior for the Kingdom of God.
