What are some good Christian philosophers with a strong Biblical backbone?

I have always struggled with the concept of philosophy being an intellectually arrogant pursuit. Then I got to thinking. What are some good Christian philosophers who use their gift of intelligence to further God's truth and wisdom?

I think a classic Christian philosopher, and one with proper degrees, Alvin Plantinga is a good starting place. I found this easier to read than one might reasonably expect: Amazon.com (God,Freedom, and Evil)

I pinned the page. Good suggestion. It's so hard to find philosophy that does anything but puff the brain.

Well this person is not a christian philosopher, but there is no one who expounds/teaches the Bible better than Zane Hodges.

What does that mean? Someone who agrees with you?

Less so agreeing with me than subscribing to an orthodox view of Christianity.
