Furthermore, Christians can be confronted with essentially non-Christian worldviews that conflict with their basic convictions; evangelicals will grapple with other Christian perspectives, or with tough questions within their own presuppositions about the nature and content of the Bible.   \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003eThis collection provides an introduction to academic study of the Bible, with the particular needs of evangelical students in mind.
