What Is Reality?
IVP Academic, 2024
By Ross Iman
WHO: Ross Iman, associate professor of philosophy at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary and editor of Philosophia Cristi.
HE SAYS: “According to an existential map shaped by the Christian story, the most elevated metaphysical coordinates that we ought to be aware of and rightly orient ourselves to is first and foremost the triune God.”
THE BIG IDEA: An introduction to metaphysics
THE PROGRESSION: In 10 chapters, the author introduces readers to the tradition of metaphysics in Western philosophy andwhat it means to do metaphysics as a Christian, and considers the universal inquiries into the central topics of metaphysics.
“Metaphysics is about wading into the wonder and depths of created being ultimately for the sake of being enthralled by the depths of God’s own uncreated being, the wonder of it all.”
