This book is one of the many books used for a philosophy class at Liberty University. It is excellent. I would be interested in reading it again when I don't have 12 other books to read in an eight week period. The author is clear and explains well the basic views and aspects of Metaphysics.

Very good book and relevant to what is going on today ... I believe every Pastor and church board elder should read this book.... A+

They must have a case of the Mondays. When someone is looking for a Christian philosopher to read, I always recommend William Hasker and many others will too. This book is a great introduction to Metaphysics and to William Hasker. If you are interested in the subject, this is a must-read for all Christians. Great book!

I, like the previous reviewer, had to read this book for a class at Liberty University on Philosophy. The class is good, this book is awful. It seemed to me that everything had to be explained away by the author about God. No usage of Scripture when dealing with an explanation of sovereignty and his conclusion on the matter left much to be desired. I am glad that my God is not bound by my mind and that I don't need to explain God's sovereignty away to take account for my will. I would never had read it to begin with and coming away from it I feel like I know more about metaphysics than I did before but for being "Christian" it does leave a bad taste in my mouth.
