From Aristotle to Christ: How Aristotelian Thought Clarified the Christian Faith

Discover how Aristotelian thought has shaped Christianity through history and remains relevant for Christians today When Christians of any age, country, or denomination debate the nature of the good life, the soul, free will, or design, Aristotle lies behind their logic as well as their rhetoric. Although Aristotle did not have access to the Bible's special revelation, he made full use of general revelation to arrive at deep truths about the nature of God, human identity, and the universe. In the Catholic Middle Ages the spiritual vision that undergirded Dante's Divine Comedy was strongly indebted to Aristotle's cosmology, and in the Protestant Reformation and Enlightenment the social vision of a well-run state was equally indebted to his political science. In a follow up to his well-loved book From Plato to Christ, renowned scholar Louis Markos takes us on a vigorous and celebratory journey through the work of Plato's greatest student, demonstrating Aristotle's often unacknowledged influence on the Christian faith. In Markos's hands, Aristotle is far from an irrelevant ancient philosopher but is instead an important conversation partner for some of history's greatest Christian thinkers and a thoughtful guide to today's most challenging questions. With this book, you'll:

- Consider the influence of Aristotle's thought on the Christian faith, - Carefully analyze several of Aristotle's best-known texts, - Trace Aristotle's influence upon many key theologians in Christian history, and - Understand Aristotle's continuing importance for Christians today. This book is a perfect addition to any classroom that seeks to understand how classical thought intersects with Christianity, both past and present. Grab your copy today and explore the relationship between Aristotelian philosophy and Christianity.
