Building a Biblical Worldview


This weekend I had the extreme privilege of attending the Code Blue Rally in Jenks, Oklahoma. Put on by Worldview Weekend, speakers like Brannon Howse, Sean McDowell and Jason Carlson spoke on the importance of developing a Christian worldview in our changing, post-modern culture. I was challenged and encouraged by every speaker.

I hope to visit many of the topics in the upcoming months. But the concept I want to highlight today comes from Brannon Howse' book, Building a Biblical Worldview Verse by Verse. In this book, Howse has taken 52 core questions about the Faith and answered them with scripture to explain the doctrinal truth - word-for-word from the Bible. By knowing these verses, you are equipped to answers question of the Faith, not from your own knowledge but from the Word of God.

Howse' 11 years old son gave an amazing example, reciting Scripture answers to the questions from this book.

My family and I have taken up the challenge to memorize these Scriptures as well. Each week, for a year, we will memorize a different verse that corresponds to a question.

May we be found
"prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have." (Peter 3:15)
