About this book
How does reason fit into the Christian worldview?
In matters of faith and reason, does faith need to be made reasonable, or is it reason that needs to be made faithful? What part does reason play in a Christian's faith life? What does the Bible teach about human reason?
Martin Luther, the famous protestant reformer, certainly had specific beliefs about this topic. But did his views align with Scripture? In The Foolishness of God, Dr. Siegbert Becker examines all of these questions, with particular attention to what Luther wrote and said about the concept of reason.
After reading this book, you'll have a thorough understanding of how God's gift of reason meshes with the gift of faith that he has given you!
