William Lane Craig 'eastwooding' Richard Dawkins

William Lane Craig ‘eastwooding’ Richard Dawkins


On September 29th, 2012, William Lane Craig participated in the Contending with Christianity’s Critics Conference held at Watermark Community Church in Dallas, TX. Dr. Craig uses the technique of Eastwooding to deal with Richard Dawkins’ attempted refutations of the cosmological, moral, teleological, and ontological arguments for God’s existence.
Many Charismatic and Pentecostal believers (along with other Evangelicals) build their faith on personal experience rather than on truth. Yes, truth must be experienced ? it not enough to hold a merely intellectual faith. But our faith is reasonable and the truth of God in Christ is the foundation of our experience. The order is clear. Truth first, experience second. The only reliable test of truth is the revelation of God in his Word ? his personal Word, the Bible and His Personal Word, Christ.
