What's coming up? Let's plunge into the Deeper Waters and find out.
Everyone has a worldview. Many of us don't realize that we do have them. We all have a way of looking at the world and we all have some background ideas that influence the way we think about reality. Many times when we have debate with people of other positions, we're not so much debating the evidence as we are the worldview that evaluates the evidence.
Christians should have a biblical worldview, but many of our Christians today believe things that outright contradict Scripture. I'm not talking about disagreements on secondary issues where we all have some wrong beliefs. We're talking about things like Christians believing in reincarnation or that all religions are equally valid.
So when discussing worldviews, you need someone who does understand worldviews, and not just a Christian worldview, but other major contenders. You need someone who also has his awareness of what is going on especially with youth today who are struggling the most with this sort of question. How is it that they can build a biblical worldview and what can churches do to restore this vision? To do that, I decided to have come on Jeff Myers from Summit Ministries to talk about worldviews.
So who is he?

According to his bio:
We'll be talking about his book*The Secret Battle of Ideas About God. We'll look at other worldviews such as secular humanism, postmodernism, Marxism, new age, and Islam. We'll be comparing how these worldviews line*up with a Christian worldview. How do they answer the great questions that we have about life? What are some of the weaknesses? Why should anyone think that a Christian worldview is a superior worldview?
I hope you'll be paying attention to this episode, especially if you have any interaction with youth today, so that you can better help prepare them, or if you are a youth so that you can better help prepare yourself. Please be watching for the next episode of the Deeper Waters Podcast. If you haven't done so yet, please also on on iTunes and leave a positive review of the Deeper Waters Podcast.
In Christ,
Nick Peters
