David K. Clark


Genre


David Clark (PhD, Northwestern University) is Professor of Christian Thought at Bethel Seminary.

Dr. Clark's academic discipline is philosophy of religion. In addition to philosophy of religion, he teaches theology and apologetics. He has special interests in epistemology, the problem of evil, religious ethics, and the relation of theology to science. His approach to these topics emphasizes dialogue: he invites students to learn how to ground their faith perspectives with solid critical reason. And, in this day of uncivil discourse, he also challenges them to listen to others, to serve, and to share their perspectives in the context of respectful personal relationships.

David Clark and his family moved to Minnesota in 1988 to teach at Bethel

“They disconnect biblical truths from each other like a depraved artist who rearranges the pieces of a beautiful mosaic.”
David K. Clark, To Know and Love God: Method for Theology

“Thus, while God’s Word is not uniform, it is internally coherent. Given these assumptions, evangelical interpretation seeks the literal sense of Scripture. This is not “letter-ism,” a stilted literalism that ignores historical tradition, cultural background, grammatical conventions, figures of speech, or literary genres. The method is much like what readers use to interpret other forms of literature. If I read a letter from my wife, for example, the meaning I seek is what she meant as she wrote.”
David K. Clark, To Know and Love God: Method for Theology

“Christianity can endure, not by surrendering itself to the modern mind and modern culture, but rather by a break with it: the condition of a long future both for culture and the soul is the Christianity which antagonizes culture without denying its place.”77”
David K. Clark, To Know and Love God: Method for Theology
