Classical Christian schools prize logic, but often lack tools to connect ancient goals with contemporary clarity. This session shows how analytic philosophy—marked by precision and argument reconstruction—can strengthen logic instruction. Drawing from Thoroughness: An Analytic Classical Christian Guide to Formal Logic, we’ll see why Alvin Plantinga—not Aristotle—should be our modern model for training students to define terms, test arguments, and unite faith with reason for a life of wise service.
Attendees will see practical ways to integrate rigorous philosophical tools into logic classrooms. They will gain fresh strategies for teaching reasoning that go beyond rote exercises, preparing students for faithful cultural engagement and deeper discipleship. The talk bridges analytic philosophy with the classical tradition in a uniquely accessible way.
