Module BC04 - 10 Weeks  
Worldviews: What They Are; Why They Mater

Course Description

Picture
This course examines the six most prominent worldviews influencing the world today (Christianity, Islam, Secularism, Marxism, New Spirituality, and Postmodernism) and demonstrates how their influence manifests in the key academic disciplines operating in American society today (Theology, Philosophy, Ethics, Biology, Psychology, Sociology, Law, Politics, Economics, and History).

The ten sessions seek to equip students to be conversant about competing worldviews and develop students’ critical thinking when examining and discussing competing worldviews. 

By helping students master the world of ideas, they will be significantly less likely to be taken captive by false philosophies (Colossians 2:8) and better able to help those they counsel and disciple to have a more biblical worldview.

Underlying emphasis is on developing strategies and applying Scriptural principles to graciously defend the Christian faith and worldview as the best one to hold.

​"May our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who loved us and by His grace gave us eternal comfort and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good work and word."  2 Thessalonians 2:16-17
