The Problem of Evil - Philosophy of Religion (PPTX)

(0)
This 35-slide PowerPoint presentation was originally used in a university classroom. It has been expanded to take the guesswork out of teaching the logical problem of evil. This presentation highlights the logical nature of the problem, which religions face this issue based upon their conception of God, and why the following three propositions are considered incompatible: (1) God is omnipotent (all-powerful), (2) God is wholly good, and (3) Evil exists. This presentation explains “theodicy” and briefly discusses a few examples toward the end (Free Will Defense, Soul-Making Argument, Pain is a Megaphone). The following thinkers are mentioned: J.L. Mackie, Peter Inwagen, Gottfried Leibniz, C.S. Lewis, and John Hick.

A Biblical Worldview (Evangelical Christianity) PPTX
condreybjcondreybj

A Biblical Worldview (Evangelical Christianity) PPTX

(0)
This 28-slide PPTX is carefully designed to introduce both lay persons (ecclesial settings) and students to a biblical worldview. It was first delivered in an adult Sunday School class in a local church but was also designed with the teacher and student in mind (secondary and postsecondary). The following questions are addressed throughout: What is a biblical worldview? What have influential Christian thinkers said about a biblical worldview (Robert Nash, Nancy Pearcey, C.S. Lewis, John Frame, etc.)? What is presuppositional thinking and how is it related to worldview thinking? How does one cultivate a biblical worldview? What are some helpful books on the topic? Note: This is written from an evangelical viewpoint, meaning that the Bible is assumed to be inspired by God in its original manuscripts (doctrine of inspiration) and therefore inerrant.

My Confessions by Leo Tolstoy - Part 1 (PowerPoint w/ Link for Reading)
condreybjcondreybj

My Confessions by Leo Tolstoy - Part 1 (PowerPoint w/ Link for Reading)

(0)
This 25-slide presentation was created and used in a University classroom. Leo Tolstoy, most famous for his realistic fiction (e.g., Anna Karenina and War and Peace), wrote an autobiography of sorts reflecting upon a horrible existential crisis that he encountered around the age of 50. He wants to find meaning, and neither his family nor his “art” (writing) seem to have any purpose. This is truly a dark time, and when he looks for answers in the “field of experimental science” and “speculative philosophy,” he comes up short. This presentation was created in conjunction with the following link which can be downloaded as a PDF (click here to be redirected). This presentation (Part 1) goes with pages 1-12 of the reading, and covers the first half of his experience: his darkest hour and his attempt to try and resist the temptation to commit suicide. In Part 2 (also available for purchase in the store), Tolstoy’s solution will be discussed.

My Confessions by Leo Tolstoy - Part 2 (PowerPoint w/ Link for Reading)

(0)
This 26-slide presentation was created and used in a University classroom. Leo Tolstoy, most famous for his realistic fiction (e.g., Anna Karenina and War and Peace), wrote an autobiography of sorts reflecting upon a horrible existential crisis that he encountered around the age of 50. He wants to find meaning, and neither his family nor his “art” (writing) seem to have any purpose. This is truly a dark time, and when he looks for answers in the “field of experimental science” and “speculative philosophy,” he comes up short. In this lecture/presentation, his solution (his way out of the existential crisis) is discussed. This presentation was created in conjunction with the following reading which can be downloaded as a PDF (click here to be redirected). This presentation–Part 2–focuses on Tolstoy’s solution in great detail (faith, or “irrational knowledge”). It corresponds to pages 12-24 in the PDF that is linked. Part 1 is also available in the store, and needs to be taught prior to this presentation so that students have context. Part 1 was created to correspond to pages 1-12 of the linked PDF.
