has innumerable other components: Is there a positive correlation between our effort and the results
in our lives? (“Why should I keep trying?”) Are people usually trustworthy? (“Can I trust a long-
term commitment like marriage?”) Is there anything more important than my personal pleasure and
convenience? (“Should I invest time, effort, and money in the kingdom of God and in helping
others?”) And so on, ad infinitum. “Worldview” is not just an abstract philosophical topic. Christians
believe all we know about God is through God showing or revealing himself to people and this

Bible, which is made up of the Old and New Testaments believed to be part of God's revelation to
humanity. I say millions of others because of the popularity of such shows as CSI; Criminal Minds;

a person views life and, therefore, how a person chooses to live. In choosing worldviews you say: we
make a decision between two potential realities: a world in which only natural forces are at work (an
atheistic worldview known as Philosophical Naturalism) or a world in which supernatural forces are
at work in addition to natural forces (as represented by Theistic Worldviews). In this way, we
understand other worldviews a little better and we affirm ours. Ken, As others have pointed out, you

Eastern religions, and because it is the essence of New Age religion. We need examples of Christ-

the cosmological argument could be seen to fit within the Christian worldview. Actually as you

just don't know enough about the universe and its beginning (assuming it had one) to make any kind
of definitive conclusion. At the same time, it's clear that Christian Theism offers explanations that are
feasible, simple, exhaustive, logical and superior, if we don't simply reject the existence of God
before we even begin the examination. If I encounter a homicide in which there is no murder
weapon (or evidence of human intervention), such as was the case in the example you cited, I would
certainly (as a Christian) be open to the explanation. As a Christian educator it is my responsibility to
