-- Groothuis, as many readers know, first achieved name recognition for being one of the first out of the gate evaluating the New Age movement. He did so with sober, reliable, scholarly, yet readable treatments in such books as Unmasking the New Age, Confronting the New Age and Jesus in an Age of Controversy, plus his little InterVarsity booklet, Are All Religions One?
A couple of days ago he posted the entirety of his article, "The New Age Jesus," which first appeared in Areopagus Journal (Nov-Dec 2004). The article comes with footnotes, making it all the more useful.

On another post, Groothuis introduces Ian R. Colle (one of Groothuis'
students) who published a positive, helpful, substantial (therefore
worth reading!) review of Paul A. Boghossian's Fear of Knowledge: Against Relativism and Constructivism. New York: Oxford University Press, 2006. vii + 139 pages, $19.95 paper. Colle's concludes his review:
Boghossian presents the constructivist/relativist views accurately and
fairly and defeats the strongest formulation of their supporting
arguments in a way that is easy to follow and understandable to the
non-technical reader. This short book should be required reading for
all humanities professors and all who care about presenting sound
arguments for a realist epistemology. Read the entire review.
