“George Barna defined a biblical worldview as ‘a means of experiencing, interpreting, and responding to reality in light of biblical perspective.’” (source)

“The key to achieving victory in the battle of ideas is to develop a worldview we can affirm and embrace every day until it becomes a habit. As Aristotle said, habit is what brings virtue to completion. ³ We become the thoughts we habitually have chiseled into the granite of daily practice.” (source)

“just reinforcing what people already knew seemed to make them more susceptible to bad ideas.” (source)

“Just as viruses trick the body because they’re coated with proteins, something the body finds beneficial, bad ideas attempt to make themselves believable by coating lies in bits of truth.” (source)

“The sixth worldview we’ll look at is the Christian worldview. It says that life is about Jesus Christ. This isn’t a religious claim; it’s about the simple premise that Jesus answers life’s toughest questions when other worldviews leave us unfulfilled.” (source)
