Author: Peter S. Williams
Institution / Affiliation: NLA University College
Abstract
This essay offers some context to this Supplement edition of Theofilos, which presents peer reviewed papers resulting from the 2018 NLA Gimlekollen Symposium on the theme of ‘Science, Natural Theology, and Christian Apologetics’. I review something of the history of natural theology and of natural philosophy (i.e. science), discuss objections to natural theology from theological and philosophical critics, review some key developments within the field of natural theology (especially as it relates to science), and end with some advice on natural theology and Christian apologetics in an age of science.
