Description

Worldviews, Book 3 is the third volume of the new Understanding the Times series from Summit Ministries. The Student Text is a beautiful, lay-flat textbook with clear, bold headings, section objectives, and a combination of fun graphics and classic artwork.  Important terms are clearly defined and printed in blue for easy reference and highlighted in a separate inset.

This textbook presents intellectually rich topics, but presents them in a very readable format for high school students. As your student reads through this text, they will learn about how various worldviews affect how we think about theology, philosophy, ethics, law, politics, economics and more.

Full of scripture, historical context, and extensive endnotes, your student will be encouraged to use the heart and head in analyzing and critiquing other worldviews. Although this text is designed to be used as part of Summit’s high school program, it could be a valuable resource for anyone interested in studying alternate worldviews. Hardcover, 461 pages.  ~Tara

Publisher's Description of Understanding the Times Series: Worldviews Book 3 Student Text

The Worldviews student textbook is written for an 11th-grade audience, but presents valuable information for any high-school Bible class. Chapters include clear explanations of concepts, student reading objectives and call-out definitions to support student learning. This Scripture-filled textbook is written to help students thoughtfully engage a biblical worldview and share it with others. Your students will come to understand the importance of a biblical worldview and how it compares to other worldviews

Worldview: Book III in the Understanding the Times Series

In Worldviews, this third of our four-volume set, we explore the Christian worldview compared to five other worldviews while examining their answers to life’s biggest questions in areas like ethics, history, philosophy, politics, biology, and more. Worldview surveys today’s major worldviews of secularism, Marxism, postmodernism, new spirituality, and Islam compared to Christianity.

The design and goals for the Understanding the Times Series are based on the premise that no worldview curriculum can, or should, provide an exact model for Christian thinking and action. Rather, a worldview curriculum must present a framework of biblical truth and values, encourage students to reflect upon it, and provide opportunities for students to apply what they have learned. Ultimately, it is up to students to individually embrace biblical truth and to act upon it as they are enabled by the Holy Spirit. Within these parameters, the goal of the Understanding the Times Series is to help students develop a cohesive Christian worldview through which they can interpret the world around them and respond to it biblically in both their thoughts and actions. It prepares students to answer the big questions about God, the universe, people, truth, and right and wrong. The Understanding the Times Series also equips students to defend their faith as well as identify the inherent contradictions and false ideas of unbiblical worldviews.

Category Description for Understanding the Times Series: Worldviews Book III

Worldviews Book III helps your student to analyze and critique 6 major worldviews (Christianity, Islam, secularism, Marxism, New Spirituality, Post-modernism) and how they compare to a Biblical worldview. Your student will learn about how worldviews affect philosophy, ethics, law, politics, and economics.  You will need the Teacher Manual, Student Text, and Student Manual to complete the course. The Teacher Manual and Student Manual both come with a code in the back of the book to access additional digital resources.
