Biblical Worldview vs Cultural Counterfeits: A Foundation for Faith | Under God Podcast Episode 213

In this foundational episode, Pastor Daniel Hayworth and Pastor Joshua Brown tackle one of the most critical topics for Christians today: understanding what a biblical worldview is and how it differs from the competing worldviews of our culture. As they explain, your worldview is the lens through which you see everything - and it determines how you live.

The pastors break down four major worldview categories that shape modern thinking. First, they examine naturalism and secular humanism - the belief that the physical world is all that exists and man is essentially God. Next, they explore relativism and postmodernism, which claim truth is completely subjective and dependent on personal experience. They then discuss eastern and pantheistic worldviews that teach "you are God" and emphasize achieving personal enlightenment.

Finally, they present the biblical worldview: the belief in objective truth rooted in the unchanging nature of God, with a clear distinction between Creator and creation. This discussion includes powerful insights about how Isaiah 55:9 establishes God's higher ways and thoughts, and how Romans 12:2 calls us to be transformed by the renewing of our minds.

What You'll Discover:

✅ Why your worldview affects every area of life - from morality to relationships

✅ How secular worldviews lead to either nihilism or hedonism

✅ The danger of syncretism - trying to blend Christianity with other worldviews

✅ Why "progressive Christianity" is actually a form of syncretism

✅ C.S. Lewis's compelling "Liar, Lunatic, or Lord" argument for Christ
