Description

In a world that wants to tell us how and what to believe, how do we develop a Biblical worldview foundation? The author equips readers with foundational instructions found in Romans 1 to stand firm when questions about their faith, morals, and Christianity arise around them. This book takes an apologetical approach in finding the evidence through scripture to refute certain worldviews. Relying on five principles to develop a Biblical worldview foundation: 1) Identify the Idol. 2) Identify the Idol's Reductionism. 3) Test the Idol: does it contradict what we know about the world? 4) Test the Idol: does it contradict itself? 5)Replace the Idol: make the case for Christianity. Taking these five principles, Nancy develops each throughout each chapter with real life stories. Each chapter has discussion questions found in the study guide in the back of the book. This guide provides further development of these principles. 382 pgs, hc. ~Rebecca
