    Can Molinism Defend Against Claims of Fatalism?

    In his book, The Only WIse God, William Lane Craig defends Molinism against the claim that a God who knows everything everyone will ever do is a fatalistic theology.   Episode 51 YouTube Channel: Surprising God Dan's books: Confident Humility The Training of KX12 Send Questions To: Surprising God on X: @SurprisingGod Facebook: SurprisingGod Dan on X: @thatdankent

    What Might True Supernatural Knowledge Look Like?

    In his book, The Only WIse God, William Lane Craig ponders the supernatural knowledge of Jesus. But when he gets down to the gritty work of describing that knowledge, he ends up with something rather mundane. Dan argues that true supernatural knowledge looks far greater than what Craig's theology allows. It looks, rather, unfathomable (as Isaiah says in 40:28) and without limit (as the Psalmist says in 147:5). Craig's understanding of God's knowledge is totally limited and easily fathomable.  Episode 50 YouTube Channel: Surprising God Dan's books: Confident Humility The Training of KX12 Send Questions To: Surprising God on X: @SurprisingGod Facebook: SurprisingGod Dan on X: @thatdankent

    Who Told You that You were Autonomous?

    In Bobby Jamieson's excellent book, "Everything is Never Enough," Jamieson argues that humans are not autonomous because they depend on creation. Since people depend on forces outside themselves for survival, and because they did not create themselves and cannot sustain themselves, Jamieson says people are not their own. But the thesis of his book is that life is a gift from God. Are these two claims compatible? Dan says no.  Link to mentioned sermon: Escaping Babylon Episode 49 YouTube Channel: Surprising God Dan's books: Confident Humility The Training of KX12 Send Questions To: Surprising God on X: @SurprisingGod Facebook: SurprisingGod Dan on X: @thatdankent

    A Strange Consequence of Compatibilism

    People will try to make free will compatible with a whole host of things that, on the face of it, seem determined. Folks will try to make free will compatible with philosophical materialism (all that exists are matter and energy), a settled future (Arminianism), and God's meticulous decree (Calvinism). But our concepts have consequences, and in this episode Dan Kent considers a strange consequence of Calvinist forms of compatibilism.  Episode 48 YouTube Channel: Surprising God Dan's books: Confident Humility The Training of KX12 Send Questions To: Surprising God on X: @SurprisingGod Facebook: SurprisingGod Dan on X: @thatdankent

    My Favorite William Lane Craig Quote Against Determinism

    William Lane Craig beautifully describes the vertigo experienced when contemplating determinism. Dan Kent asks whether conteplating free will might create an obverse vertigo.  Episode 47 YouTube Channel: Surprising God Dan's books: Confident Humility The Training of KX12 Send Questions To: Surprising God on X: @SurprisingGod Facebook: SurprisingGod Dan on X: @thatdankent

    What is the Story of Joseph Really About?

    Timothy Keller argues that the story of Joseph in the Old Testament is about God's control. Dan argues that the story is more about Joseph's control. What do you think?    Episode 46 YouTube Channel: Surprising God Dan's books: Confident Humility The Training of KX12 Send Questions To: Surprising God on X: @SurprisingGod Facebook: SurprisingGod Dan on X: @thatdankent

    Is Open Theism the Only View that Makes Sense of Sabbath?

    Calvin says God does everything, and everything that happens is because God brings it about. God never rests. But Sabbath is to rest, and we are told God rests. How can a God who does everything rest? Dan discusses...   Episode 45 YouTube Channel: Surprising God Dan's books: Confident Humility The Training of KX12 Send Questions To: Surprising God on X: @SurprisingGod Facebook: SurprisingGod Dan on X: @thatdankent
