We use Paul's Paul’s address to the Athenians (Acts 17) as a template to explain the biblical worldview. This is where we must begin when seeking to preach the gospel to people with no spiritual background ... a growing number even in so-called Christian nations. Thus we outline the following key elements: God as Creator (ex nihilo), God’s providence, sovereignty, and immanence, human sin, man's accountability to God, and the centrality of Christ to the Bible's message.
