What does productivity mean for the Christian?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Productivity can seem a subject more suited for business-people than for Christians.  But the Bible is clear, especially in Jesus’ parable of the talents in Matthew 25, that God expects His followers to use everything He gives us to advance His kingdom.

In his book, Do More Better, pastor Tim Challies shares a plan for Christians to become more productive, not […]

Truths without The Truth.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Psychology professor Jordan Peterson and Orthodox Jew Ben Shapiro have become well-known for their pushback against Cultural Marxism, which seeks to topple biblical Christianity in order to enforce a utopian world of social justice.

Peterson and Shapiro speak some truths, but Christians should be wary of too much influence by their worldview that mixes some biblical truth with flawed human reason.

Let’s be reminded […]

How to view those who espouse truths without the Truth?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

There is pushback against the ever-increasing totalitarian impulse of the Left, which seeks to redefine what God has established regarding marriage, sexuality, gender, individuality, and freedom of belief and speech, punishing or “de-platforming” those who dare dissent.

Leading the pushback are thought leaders such as Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro, and Dennis Prager, who influence millions of followers.  All […]

What is the worldview of Evangelicals?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Ligonier Ministries released their 2018 State of Theology survey which examines what Americans believe about a spectrum of theological questions.

It’s not surprising the general population’s responses contradict a biblical worldview, but when more than half of Evangelicals agree that people are good by nature and God accepts the worship of all religions, we have a major problem.

We need to heed […]

What should we learn from the Pilgrims?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

The Pilgrims, who miraculously established the early American colony at Plymouth in 1620 and celebrated the first Thanksgiving with local Indians in 1621, were a subgroup of the Puritans, who believed the Church of England needed purifying in doctrine and practice from Roman Catholic influence.

The Pilgrims fled persecution in England for Holland, eventually making their historic voyage to America […]

Lessons from the Revelation churches.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

In Revelation two and three, Jesus gives commendations and warnings to seven historic churches in what is now modern-day Turkey.

No church is praised for its growth, programs, music, societal impact, social justice, or relevance to non-believers.

Instead, what Christ commends is faithfulness to God’s word, intolerance of false teaching, perseverance in suffering, and holiness, while warning against sexual immorality, worldliness, and loss […]

What is Jesus’ message to His church today?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

In the opening chapters of Revelation, Jesus gives messages to seven historic churches in Asia Minor.

Two of the seven received commendations for their faithfulness while five were warned to repent of their errant ways or face the consequences.

The church today would do well to heed Christ’s commands to these churches: to cling to sound doctrine, to be full […]

Worldview divide in the mid-term election.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

Whether you are hearing this before or after the mid-term election, two realities remain the same.  The first is the worldview divide in America is wide.  Generally speaking, on one side there is Americanism represented by President Trump and Republicans and on the other is nearly Socialism represented by former President Obama and Democrats.

The other reality is that no matter […]

TCW Minute: Will You Be a Fool for Christ’s Sake? (Week of Oct. 29, 2018)

Will you be a fool for Christ’s sake?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

No matter how educated or how winsome or how accomplished a Christian is, the non-believing world will still view him or her as a fool.  That’s because, as the apostle Paul says, “the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing” (1 Corinthians 1:18).

But then he writes, “God was well-pleased through the foolishness of the […]
