Guest: Dr. Mike Adams, professor, University of North Carolina at Wilmington
Higher education in America today almost exclusively adheres to a radically humanistic worldview. The “tenured radicals” who teach your sons and daughters in college want nothing more than to undermine the Christian faith you’ve taught them.
In Hour 1 of The Christian Worldview this weekend, we’re going to get an inside perspective from a tenured professor at a major university, except this professor is a born-again Christian. Mike Adams, professor at University of North Carolina Wilmington and syndicated columnist, will be our guest.
As a Christian professor, he will tell us about the major battlefronts on the college campus and how the students and college administration handles his outspoken Christian views.

Guest: Dr. Robert Carter, scientist and researcher, Creation Ministries International
A couple hundred years ago, most people in America believed the universe was created by God. That changed when an Englishman named Charles Darwin took a boat ride to the Galapagos Islands off South America in the 1830’s.
With the printing of Darwin’s book, “On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life” (yes, that is the full original title), the educated elite and then the regular folks began to believe “the lie”.
This week in Hour 2 of The Christian Worldview, Robert Carter from Creation Ministries International will tell us the ramifications of the shift in worldview from creationism to Darwinian evolution and when, if ever, this flawed theory will be discarded on the ash heap of history.

When FOX News Channel contributor Brit Hume expresses his opinion that Tiger Woods should seek Christianity rather than Buddhism to find redemption and forgiveness from his marital infidelities, the secular world goes apoplectic with scorn. Why is that?
When Focus on the Family creates a Super Bowl commercial that features Pam Tebow, mother of Univ. of Florida star quarterback Tim Tebow, talking about her story of bringing Tim to term despite possible health challenges, the secular world goes crazy with rage. Why?
What is it about Jesus Christ and the teachings of the Bible that get the secular world in a frothy-mouthed state and how should Christians respond? We’ll discuss that in Hour 2 of The Christian Worldview this Saturday.

Guest: Iain Murray, minister and author, Evangelicalism Divided
Last week in Part 1 of our interview with revered Scottish writer and minister Iain Murray, he told us about his background, his service with the great English preacher, D. Martyn Lloyd Jones, and the first of two areas that Evangelicalism has been divided in the last 60 years — ecumenism, or attempts at unity with other religious ways that hold “another gospel” apart from faith alone in Christ alone by grace alone.
This week in Part 2, Mr. Murray will talk about the second area of division in Evangelicalism (Christian academia), what will bring about revival, and what Christians need to do to finish well.
Don’t miss this rare interview with a 78-year-old faithful follower of Christ.

Guest: Dr. David Noebel, president of Summit Ministries
Life is a clash of worldviews. Whether we realize it or not, there is a constant war being waged over which ideas, values, and beliefs will control public policy, media, culture, and personal behavior.
Recent events are a perfect example of this war of worldviews. Republican Scott Brown was shockingly elected to fill the Senatorial seat that Democrat Ted Kennedy held in Massachusetts for decades which resulted in the Democrats losing their 60-vote supermajority in the U.S. Senate. What worldview are the people of Massachusetts rejecting in voting for Brown?
Dr. David Noebel, president of Summit Ministries and internationally-known expert on worldviews, will help us clarify these clashes of worldviews in the news.

Guest: Iain Murray, minister and author, Evangelicalism Divided
We are going to have the rare opportunity the next two weekends to hear from Iain Murray, a Scottish minister, prolific writer, and Editorial Director of Banner of Truth Trust, who has had a profound influence on Evangelicalism for the last 50 years.
In the late 1950’s, Mr. Murray served as assistant to D. Martyn Lloyd-Jones, one of England’s greatest preachers, at Westminster Chapel in London.
Now 78 years old, Mr. Murray will talk about his time serving with Lloyd-Jones, the two reasons why Evangelicalism has been compromised in the past half century, and what needs to take place for revival.
Don’t miss hearing from this elder statesman of faith the next two weekends on The Christian Worldview.

Guest: Mark Durie, pastor and author
The explanation being given about the recent Islamist terror attacks at Ft. Hood in Texas and in the sky over Detroit is that they are “isolated incidents perpetrated by a couple of crazy guys who don’t represent the vast majority of peaceful Muslims around the world.”
But is that really an accurate assessment or a politically correct white-wash?
Mark Durie, an Australian pastor, theologian, and author of “The Third Choice: Islam, Dhimmitude and Freedom“, will join us in Hour 2 of The Christian Worldview on Saturday to explain the overarching framework and mission of Islamists — the institution of the dhimma, an all-encompassing servitude imposed by Muslims over non-Muslims.

In Hour 1 this Saturday on The Christian Worldview, we will have our 5th annual “Forecast” program where we look ahead to the year in order to discern what’s coming our way in the world, the country, and the church.
Will the nations of the world become more unified this year or will socio-economic and religious tensions cause fractures and wars? What will America’s response be to President Obama’s first two years in office when they vote in the mid-term elections in November? And where is the evangelical church in America headed this year?
Jesus calls us to discern the “signs of the times” (Matthew 16:3) and we will try to do just that this Saturday on The Christian Worldview.
Belly Up to the Bar to Share the Gospel?

Guest: Jim Stitzinger, pastor, Grace Bible Church
You probably agree that Christians are called to take the gospel to the lost but does that mean going into “dens of iniquity” like bars and nightclubs to do so? Jesus Himself shared the gospel to the outcasts of society such as tax collectors and prostitutes so how should we follow in His footsteps today?
Jim Stitzinger, pastor of Grace Bible Church in Naples, FL, wrote a column in Outreach Magazine about this very topic and will sharpen our biblical worldview as to what is right and what is not for Christians with regards to where and how we should pursue evangelism.

Guest: Joel Beeke, president, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary
Bring up the theology known as Calvinism and you will get a wide variety of responses, from quizzical looks to abject loathing and everything in between.
Also known as Reformed Theology or the Doctrines of Grace, Calvinism is nothing if not misunderstood. What actually is Calvinism and does it lead, as many believe, to a fatalistic and apathetic Christian life? 
What are the five points of Calvinism and are they biblical?
In Hour 1 of The Christian Worldview this Saturday, Joel Beeke, author of Living for God’s Glory: An Introduction to Calvinism, will tell us what Calvinism is and what it isn’t. We will also take your phone calls.
