Transform Your Mind, Engage The Culture.

Many Christians have not developed a systematic, comprehensive biblical worldview because they have failed to examine God's truth to areas outside of basic theology.

Does God have anything to say about philosophy, anthropology, or science?

Taught by Dr. John B. Leaf, this course takes an in-depth look at the impact of theology, philosophy, history, science, and psychology on your worldview. By studying these spheres through the lens of Scripture, you will be better equipped to be salt and light in a desperate world.

Core Course Objectives

• Systematize Your Faith: Develop a biblical worldview that connects God's truth to every sphere of existence.

• Contrast Competing Worldviews: Examine foundational life categories from a biblical perspective and contrast them directly with prevailing secular humanist and postmodern viewpoints.

• Cultural Engagement: Learn to identify the "idols for destruction" in modern culture and confidently apply God's design to counter cultural narratives.

Key Topics of Study

• Theology & Reality: Answering "Who is God?" and understanding His absolute truth.

• Philosophy & Ethics: Examining the foundations of knowledge, reality, and moral frameworks.

"Christianity is not a series of truths in the plural, but rather truth with a capital 'T.' Truth about total reality, not just about religious things." (Francis Schaeffer).
