Thanks for coming here, Graham.
Re: Christian writers...even though a lot of them come from a wholly Westernized intellectual pedigree, that doesn't mean we have to discount everything they say. Some of them have adopted the heart-led path (Chesterton seemed to be on the right tack, in my view), even though they hardly use the same terminology we may use here, and may struggle with expressing it since they have a different linguistic and philosophical toolkit. We can only read and pray about what we're taking in and see what insights we can glean.
