S4 28: Don’t Settle for a Small Worldview With Michael Craven

Christians have the privilege of participating with God as He makes all things new. But many believers have unwittingly settled for a small worldview and a privatized faith that has little effect on the culture around them. That’s why the Colson Center is committed to helping Christians develop a Christian worldview that shapes all of life—not just Sunday mornings. The primary way we do this is through the Colson Fellows program. This week, I’m joined by my dear colleague, Michael Craven, Dean of the Colson Fellows. Tune in to hear his story and get a vision for the necessity, beauty, and transforming power of embracing a comprehensive Christian worldview.    The Gods of Revolution by Christopher Dawson    You can explore the Colson Fellows program and submit an application at colsonfellows.org.  Doubts and hard questions are a welcome part of the Christian life. But many young Christians today are being encouraged to “deconstruct” their faith. Culture becomes the standard of truth instead of Scripture, and many young believers walk away from faith altogether. To help the Church offer a better way to those who are deconstructing, Alisa Childers and Tim Barnett have written The Deconstruction of Christianity. They define what deconstruction really is, why it’s appealing to so many, and why it’s harmful. They also equip us to love those who are deconstructing by welcoming the hard questions while also upholding truth.
