Abstract

This general editorial introduction to the volume attempts to answer why another book on Christian philosophy is even needed today. J. Aaron Simmons argues that in light of continued debates regarding the relationship between philosophy and theology, it is important to think carefully about the different ways of making sense of philosophical subcategories defined by the particular commitments of the various participants in the debates. In this way, Simmons suggests that the idea of Christian philosophy needs careful historical analysis and hermeneutic evaluation. The introduction then offers a brief history of recent Christian philosophy as a distinct philosophical approach and anticipates the various criticisms that might be leveled against it.
