THE CENTRE FOR CHRISTIAN<br />

APOLOGETICS, SCHOLARSHIP<br />

AND EDUCATION (CASE)<br />

CASE<br />

In 20<strong>17</strong> Assoc. Prof Bill<br />

Peirson has commenced<br />

leading CASE as its new<br />

Director. The Centre for<br />

Christian Apologetics,<br />

Scholarship and Education<br />

was established as a<br />

ministry of <strong>New</strong> College in<br />

2002 by Prof Trevor Cairney.<br />

The CASE Centre aims to provide<br />

Christian commentary on social,<br />

intellectual and academic issues,<br />

and engage people of all persuasions<br />

in debate and discussion concerning<br />

contemporary issues of broad interest.<br />

It does this through the CASE website,<br />

the Case Quarterly publication, regular<br />

comment by our expert columnists, indepth<br />

articles by local and international<br />

authors, conferences and seminars.<br />

In late <strong>2016</strong> a new CASE website<br />

was launched alongside a full revision<br />

of the publication. ‘Case in Point’ is a<br />

new segment in the journal written<br />

by regular and guest columnists<br />

with the aim of providing brief but<br />

thought-provoking reflection and<br />

analysis by Christian thinkers in a<br />

wide range of areas of life and thought.<br />

The format also allows columnists<br />

to bring a biblical perspective to bear<br />

on developments in their area of<br />

expertise and alert readers to new<br />

challenges and resources as they seek<br />

to live out their faith and share it with<br />

their neighbours.<br />

The new website offers a variety<br />

of options for accessing old and<br />

new content, whether articles from<br />

Case Quarterly, reviews, or special<br />

publications. Every one of our indepth<br />

articles from past and current<br />

issues of Case is now on the site.<br />

There is a range of new subscription<br />

options for individuals, churches and<br />

other institutions. Print subscriptions<br />

are still available, or by choosing<br />

a digital subscription (digital only<br />

or print + digital) subscribers can<br />

have full access to all content on<br />

the website. Non-subscribers can<br />

access all free content, and purchase<br />

individual articles for a small fee.<br />

You can explore all of these options<br />

“CASE offers some of the<br />

best Christian thinking<br />

by genuine experts on a<br />

truly fascinating array of<br />

topics. I have never failed<br />

to be engaged by the CASE<br />

publications.”<br />

Rev Dr Michael P Jensen<br />

“I appreciate the opportunity to<br />

read the thoughtful essays from<br />

the wide range of contributors<br />

to CASE. It allows me to fill out<br />

my Christian world view in areas<br />

I would never get around to<br />

researching for myself.”<br />

Dr Megan Best<br />

“CASE is a resource I regularly<br />

turn to when I need a<br />

thoughtful article to discuss<br />

in a Bible Study group or for a<br />

training seminar with university<br />

students. It’s a valuable part of<br />

a ministry tool-kit.”<br />

Rev Dan Anderson<br />
