What is a ‘worldview’?
If customs, language, clothing and food are like the leaves of a tree, then the underlying worldview is like the trunk and branches. It gives shape to the whole, but is often barely visible. Until we understand our own worldview we cannot hope to understand other people’s. David Burnett sets out: - The major contemporary worldviews - Our own basic assumptions - The way these radically different worldviews interact - Some basic principles in evangelising those with other perspectives Dr Burnett asks some fundamental questions of each worldview. What is ‘real’? What is human? What is truth? How does any group understand the ideas of community, time and value? His wealth of research and many examples make Clash of Worlds a delight to read. It is an invaluable resource for all thinking Christians. |
