How can you develop a sense of your life as a narrative? In this lecture at the King's College New York, Brian Ballard explains seven ways Christianity helps.
How It Got Started
Dr. Brian Ballard
I believe that Christian faith is for thinking people and for thirsty people; it is for those who care about the life of the mind, and those who care about a life rich with meaning. The purpose of this site is to explain how I came to these views, and offer you some reasons to share them.
I earned my PhD in Philosophy from the University of Pittsburgh. My academic work explores the nature of emotions and related attitudes like faith.
I'm an assistant professor of philosophy at Concordia University in Irvine, and a research fellow at LCC International.
