He’s gave up the orthodox view of revelation (epistemology, not the book) aka, doesn’t matter if the resurrection happened historically, it can happen in your heart.

Also he was a dirtbag

Other than Schaeffer, I’d also recommend Herman Bavinck’s “Christian Worldview” or the philosophy of Herman Dooyeweerd

Yeah, I knew about the mistress.
I didn’t know he was like Tillich and Bultmann regarding the Resurrection.

I like his emphasis on Jesus as The Word of God, his view of election, and his hopeful universalism.

I’ll keep reading.

Schaeffer didn’t believe it either until he visited Barth near the end of Barth’s life and got confirmation.
