The fifty-second volume of Studies in Church History explores the myriad ways in which doubt has tested Christianity and the life of individual Christians. Men and women have always had doubts about ideas, or individual doctrines, if not faith itself; they have also doubted how truth can be authenticated. The means and the implications of expressing either kind of doubt are shaped by historical circumstance. Led by scholars including Kirstie Blair, Janet Nelson, Charles Stang and Rowan Williams, the essays explore doubt from the Early Church to the contemporary world. They investigate a range of questions, from the familiar 'doubting Thomas', and the more surprising 'doubting John', through the pressing concerns of the Middle Ages, the emphasis on rationalism of the Enlightenment, to the competing ideological and confessional perspectives of the modern world. This fascinating collection offers an introduction to the complex relationship between doubt, faith and the Christian Churches.

The existence of God is a subject that has occupied individual thinkers and entire schools of philosophy for thousands of years, and it remains one of the greatest debates of our day. To equip readers with the information to enter the fray, The God Debates presents a comprehensive, non-technical survey of the quest for knowledge of God. By mastering the clear and concise strategies put forth in each chapter, anyone can participate in a thoughtful debate over whether God exists, or simply gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of religion's conceptual foundations. The best arguments and counter-arguments regarding God's existence are clearly elucidated, and both believers and non-believers will become acquainted with reasoned arguments for and against the existence of God. Moving well beyond Medieval and Modern arguments about God's existence, The God Debates brings theology's story right into the twenty-first century by considering various existentialisms, postmodernisms, and fideisms, as well as the ongoing controversy of evidentialism/presuppositionalism. A final chapter considers the possibility of harmonizing reason and faith in light of several current worldviews, including fundamentalism and secularism. The God Debates provides believers, and non-believers alike with invaluable information to participate in a thoughtful religious dialogue -- and gain insights into the timeless quest for knowledge that can give meaning to our lives.

Le philosophe et théologien Raymond Lulle (1232-1316) est connu surtout comme l’auteur d’une Ars de trouver la vérité qu’il présente comme alternative aux méthodes développées dans le milieu universitaire. Pour comprendre cette Ars, il faut tenir compte de son but : convaincre les infidèles de la vérité de la foi catholique à l’aide de la raison. Cela n’est possible qu’en la concevant comme un langage commun, universel, qui surmonte les déficiences propres à la nature sensible du signe et qui offre à l’entendement de vrais signifiés intellectuels. Le lecteur trouvera dans ce livre une explication de la genèse et du fonctionnement de la méthode lullienne, envisagée comme une réponse aux enjeux expressifs et communicatifs impliqués dans le souci missionnaire de son auteur. On perçoit ainsi que l’Ars de Lulle incorpore des solutions, et même des références concrètes, empruntées aux réflexions théoriques contemporaines à propos du langage, mais orientées vers une pratique communicative au service de la mission.
