E. Calvin Beisner, an interdisciplinary scholar specializing on the application of Biblical world view, theology, and ethics to economics, environmental stewardship, political philosophy, public policy, and apologetics, is founder and national spokesman of the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation. The Cornwall Alliance is a network of theologians, pastors, other ministry leaders, scientists, economists, other scholars, and policy experts committed to applying Biblical principles to the twin challenges of economic development for the very poor around the world and wise Earth stewardship.

This YouTube is related to the past posts that involve Andy Stanley and how Andy relates to the truths of the Bible.

(Andy believes only a small portion of Scripture to be true.)

A.S. created "epistemological chaos" (in the words of James White as a result of his now infamous sermon "For the Bible Told Me So".

Beisner's lecture sheds some light on the presuppositionalistic method of GOrdon Clark, which allows a Christian to start with the truth of the Bible as a set of fooundational axioms.

Thanks for this link. I’ll be sure and watch it later. I’ve had Gordon Clark on my mind. Last Friday I listened to Dr. Clark lecture on John Frame and Cornelius Van Til.

I was a little surprised but pleased by the last ten minutes of his talk.

(I won’t ruin it by describing it here. :-)

I’m anxious to hear this. I first became familiar with Dr. Beisner when I read his book Prospects for Growth back in the early 90’s. He’s one of those men I wish more people would read and pay attention to.
