“A worldview is simply someone's relatively organized understanding of what the world is actually like.” WorldUnderstandingOrganizedWorldview Author:Greg Koukl
“Worldviews have four elements that help us understand how a person's story fits together: creation, fall, redemption, and restoration. "Creation" tells us how things began, where everything came from (including us), the reason for our origins, and what ultimate reality is like. "Fall" describes the problem (since we all know something has gone wrong with the world). "Redemption" gives us the solution, the way to fix what went wrong. "Restoration" describes what the world would look like once the repair begins to take place.” KnowsWorldWayGivingLooksPersonsReasonHelpingStoriesProblemRealityTogetherFallGoneFourCreationFitElementsSolutionsUltimateIncludingRedemptionWorldviewRestorationUltimate RealityFour Elements Author:Greg Koukl
“Some people suggest that a worldview is like a set of glasses that color the way you see the world around you. A Christian interprets the world one way, and an atheist interprets the same world a completely different way since he's looking through different worldview "glasses."” PeopleWorldDifferentChristianAtheistWorldview Author:Greg Koukl
“When we encounter new details of our world we fill in more of the spaces. When we discover details that don't seem to fit with our view of the world, we have a kind of "crisis of faith," even if our worldview is not especially religious. We're forced to redraw our "map" a bit.” WorldKindReligiousFitCrisisWorldview Author:Greg Koukl
“Every worldview has its ambiguities - debatable elements that people simply will not see to eye on. There's nothing wrong with that as long as the disagreement is principled and dignified. I actually think that arguments - as opposed to quarrels - are good things because they're the best way to figure out what's true. Share your reasons, listen carefully to each other, be nice, and may the best idea win.” PeopleThinkingLongReasonEyeWinningNiceShareArgumentGood ThingsBeing NiceAmbiguityWorldviewDisagreement Author:Greg Koukl
