“The entirety of Your word is truth, and every one of Your righteous judgments endures forever” (Ps 119:160)
God’s Word is Truth. Jesus Christ embodied the Truth (John 14:6). This is why the Christian worldview is preeminent above all others … because it is the one worldview based on the Truth.
Yet, the majority of the world never has and never will be able to handle the Truth. As a matter of fact, they crucified the One who lived the Truth out perfectly. And they go on rejecting the Truth as it relates to science, economics, family, gender, sexuality, religion, authority, and every other aspect of life. Even worse, Christians
Nancy Pearcey, scholar for Worldview Studies at Philadelphia Biblical University and author of Total Truth (winner of the 2005 ECPA Gold Medallion Award for best book on Christianity and Society), will join us this weekend to help us understand why the world can’t handle the truth and how Christians can develop a more truth-based worldview.
