Talcott, David

Plato
David Talcott

An excellent wielder of rational argument, the ancient Greek philosopher Plato dedicated his life to the pursuit and defense of truth, goodness, and justice. His insights not only left a lasting imprint on the world of philosophy but now illuminate the intellectual bankruptcy of contemporary thought.

Despite his paganism, Plato has often been an intellectual ally for Christians. David Talcott calls for a reengagement with Plato’s arguments about metaphysical reality, teleology, and virtue in order to strengthen our faith in the truthfulness of God’s Word and the Christian worldview. Through both what is praiseworthy and problematic in Plato, we can see the goodness of God’s salvation by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone.

David Talcott (PhD, Indiana University) is fellow of philosophy and the graduate dean at New Saint Andrews College in Moscow, Idaho. He is a program manager for truthXchange and a ruling elder in the Presbyterian Church of America.
