First, what is a worldview and why is it so important?

Every human being has a worldview. It is the lens through which we see the world and understand our place in it. A worldview is our framework of beliefs and values — shaping how we interpret experiences, make decisions, and live our lives.

For followers of Jesus Christ, developing a Biblical worldview is essential.

Dr. George Barna is one of the nation’s leading researchers and teachers on worldview from a Biblical faith perspective. No author in America has sold more research-based books examining faith, culture, and the church.

He is the author or co-author of more than 60 books addressing social and religious trends, worldview, leadership, spiritual development, church dynamics, and cultural transformation — many of them bestsellers.

It is well worth watching this 15-minute clip in which Dr. Barna explains:

  • why a Biblical worldview matters

  • why many churches are not effectively teaching it

  • why young people are leaving the church at alarming rates

He also explains the seven foundational cornerstones of a Biblical worldview — and how parents and grandparents can instill them in children in simple, practical ways that strengthen faith for a lifetime.

THERE’S HOPE!
