David Naugle

Dr. David K. Naugle (1952 – 2021) was an author and professor. He was considered an expert on the Christian worldview.

Naugle was the head of the philosophy department at Dallas Baptist University. He was an ardent supporter of Neo-Calvinism, although he was not a 5-point Calvinist but rather a proponent of Amyraldism.[1]

During his time there, he began a weekly lecture series at the university called the “Friday Symposium”. It features presentations by DBU's faculty, students, and off-campus lecturers on a broad range of topics. He also began the annual “Summer Institute for Christian Scholarship”, a ten-week faculty enrichment program for Dallas Baptist University's professors.

Dr. Naugle died on Friday, June 11, 2021.[2]

Works

He authored Worldview: The History of a Concept in 2003 which was selected by Christianity Today Magazine as the "Book of the Year" in its theology and ethics category.[3] [4] The Peking University Press has since translated it into Chinese for a release in 2006. Naugle also wrote Reordered Loves, Reordered Lives: Learning the Deep Meaning of Happiness and Philosophy: A Student's Guide.
