and his views about the competing views intelligo ut credam<br />
(“I understand in order that I may believe”) and credo ut<br />
intelligam (“I believe in order that I may understand”). In<br />
medieval philosophy the work of Anselm is critical in framing<br />
views of believers in Christ at that point in the history of<br />
Christendom. The articles of Bart Warren, Isaac Bourne, and<br />
Clay Leonard take us in more of a textual direction. Bart,<br />
who is an accomplished writer in his own right, is nonetheless<br />
a proud grandson of Thomas B. Warren. Bart has come<br />
to his own conclusions about faith and reason legitimately<br />
as he writes about how Jesus used the terms related to faith<br />
and reason. Isaac focuses on the Pauline epistles (plus some<br />
passages from Acts) to delineate Paul’s inspired linguistic<br />
expertise of reason and faith words. Clay Leonard was commissioned<br />
with the task of doing the same thing from the<br />
writers of non-Pauline New Testament epistles. Finally, we<br />
add a new dimension to this journal. Alan Groves reviews<br />
the book We Look For a Kingdom: The Everyday Lives of the<br />
Early Christians by Carl J. Sommer. The review of this book<br />
is appropriate because of the overriding concerns about the<br />
Kingdom of God endemic to our journal Kingdom. We hope<br />
you are blessed by reading these articles.<br />
