Outstanding - Ep. 34: What Forms a Worldview? |
Podcast with Joseph Backholm |
A worldview is a lens through which we see life. Generally, a worldview can be discovered by answering four main questions:
1. What is the origin of humanity?
2. Does our life have meaning?
3. Is there an ultimate morality?
4. What happens when we die?
It's back to the basics with this episode, as host Joseph Backholm highlights two main worldviews: Naturalism and Creationism. Walking through how each one would answer the four main questions, Joseph unpacks the difference between these two worldviews, what it means to have a Christian worldview, and how to discover what your worldview is. He also addresses, as Christians, where should we put our hope and how does our worldview influence our politics? |
