Everyone has a worldview, but we do not share the same worldview. In our changing and nuanced times, the issue of "how we see the world" becomes of vital importance to the christian. How to interact with other philosophies and other religious movements? A pluralistic world awaits us every day.
In that sense, it is very important that Christians can have a biblical worldview. But, possibly someone asks "what is worldview?" And what does it consist of?". Well this is the book that can serve to introduce us to the topic of the Christian worldview, at the same time it offers us resources to interact with other movements.
The book is divided into three parts:
The first, entitled "Introducing Worldview", which gives us the basis of the matter, in this part we understand what it is a worldview, what are its elements and how it influences our reality. It is a part that must be read to understand the following two parts.
The second part, entitled "Contours of a christian worldview", shows how the narrative core of the Christian story is related to our worldview.
In the last part, entitled "Analyzing Worldviews", the author show us other worldviews and their respective differences with the Christian worldview. In this way, we understand other worldviews a little better and we affirm ours.
This is a very interesting book, for several aspects:
- Very accessible: It is not full of technical expressions or complex philosophical arguments, which allows anyone to understand the matter.
- Ideal for classes: Its structure allows us to use it for an apologetics course
- Relevant
