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]
Naugle started and once directed a weekly lecture series at the university called the “Friday Symposium”. It features presentations by DBU's faculty, talented undergraduate and graduate students, and off-campus lecturers on a broad range of topics.
Naugle also started and taught in the annual “Summer Institute for Christian Scholarship”. This is a ten-week faculty enrichment program for Dallas Baptist University's professors.
In the Spring of 2016 he took a temporary medical leave of absence from his current position at Dallas Baptist University.
Dr. Naugle died on Friday, June 11 2021.[2]
