Feeling like we’re inadequate causes us to focus solely on ourselves instead of on God, and brings us into self-effort to try to improve ourselves. We’re delivered from this emotion through our belief in Jesus Christ and our dependence on Him. The world has plenty of “solutions” for the negative emotions associated with condemnation, but trusting in and relying on Jesus is the only permanent one.

If you’re not intentionally teaching your kids a solid Christian worldview, someone else is shaping their beliefs for you.

In this can’t-miss replay from the Christian Parent / Crazy World vault, sits down with Elizabeth Urbanowicz—elementary educator, apologist, and founder of Foundation Worldview—to equip parents for the immense challenge of raising resilient, truth-loving kids in a culture determined to shape their values.

While many children in Christian homes learn Bible stories and attend church, a shocking disconnect remains: they often think more like the surrounding culture than like Christ.

Elizabeth shares her journey from the Christian classroom—where she saw even well-discipled kids absorbing secular ideas—to developing comprehensive curricula that anchor young minds in biblical truth.

A worldview, she explains, is a “mental map” that guides everything we think, say, and do. In this episode, she equips parents to make that map biblical—even for their youngest learners.

Highlights from the Episode:

The Worldview Crisis
Elizabeth explains why even diligent discipleship and Christian education aren't enough without intentional worldview training.

Humorous and sobering stories show how easily relativism creeps in—even at age eight.

Practical Building Blocks
Don’t aim for a “giant leap to the roof.” Instead, build your child’s worldview step-by-step.

Elizabeth outlines key strategies to ground young believers in truth.

Two Essentials for Raising Faithful Kids

1. Equip children to read, interpret, and apply Scripture independently.
2. Teach them to think critically and evaluate every idea they encounter.

These are vital skills in today’s age of information overload.

❓ Foundational Questions
Her curriculum answers five critical worldview questions that help kids compare beliefs and recognize truth:

• What is truth?
• Who is God?
• How did life begin?
• Who am I?
• How can I tell right from wrong?

Curriculum for Real Life
From classroom meditation examples to parent testimonials, Catherine and Elizabeth show how transformative—and fun—worldview learning can be.

Essential Foundational Questions (Revisited)

Elizabeth emphasizes five big questions every child needs answered:

• What is truth?
• Who is God?
• How did life begin?
• Who am I? (What does it mean to be human?)
• *How can I tell right from wrong?

‍ Guest Bio: Elizabeth Urbanowicz

Elizabeth holds master’s degrees in literacy education and Christian apologetics (Biola University) and is the founder and CEO of Foundation Worldview. Her years in the classroom illuminated a pressing need for worldview discipleship, inspiring her to develop resources now used by parents, churches, and schools nationwide.

️ Key Takeaway:

Your kids can’t keep what they don’t own, and they can’t own what they don’t know.
Equip them with the tools to discern truth—and watch them stand strong in a culture of confusion.

In a culture that calls God's wisdom foolishness, how do believers stand firm in biblical truth? Dr. John explores 1 Corinthians 3:18-23, examining Paul's call to the divided Corinthian church to embrace divine wisdom over worldly thinking. He challenges Christians to accept being labeled "fools" by the world while encouraging believers with Paul's reminder that they possess all things because they belong to Christ.

In this episode of Club Random, Grammy-winning rock star Rick Springfield gets raw about fame, depression, and why getting older might be the best gig yet. He and Bill swap stories about tripping on psychedelics, battling bad music critics, discovering Beatles lyrics by hand, and wild run-ins with Elvis and The Bee Gees. They riff on everything from concert bathroom line etiquette to AI sex – all while passionately debating the eternal question: Lennon or McCartney? It’s rock star therapy with a twist… and let’s just say, Jessie’s girl really missed out.

Earlier this year, FaithFi had the opportunity to sit down with Tim Tebow—Heisman Trophy winner, former NFL quarterback, and founder of the Tim Tebow Foundation. But this wasn’t a conversation about championships or accolades. 

Instead, it focused on the moments that most people would rather forget—the painful setbacks that God can use to shape something far greater than we could ever have imagined.

Tim Tebow is a Heisman Trophy winner, former NFL quarterback, and founder of the Tim Tebow Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to serving vulnerable children and individuals with disabilities through initiatives such as Night to Shine, orphan care, medical outreach, anti-human trafficking efforts, and support for children with profound medical needs.

One of those moments came during the 2008 college football season, when the University of Florida suffered an unexpected loss to Ole Miss. It’s a game many fans remember, but for Tebow, it was deeply personal.

As the team’s quarterback and leader, he took responsibility—not just for the plays on the field, but for the team’s mindset, culture, and lack of focus. “We thought we had it in the bag,” he recalled. But after falling behind and ultimately missing a critical extra point, the Gators were handed a humbling defeat.

That moment set the stage for what became one of the most iconic press conferences in college football history—Tebow’s passionate promise that the team would never be outworked again. What few saw, however, was the deeper soul-searching that happened behind the scenes. It was a moment of internal reckoning and spiritual clarity.

A more recent setback came in 2021, when Tebow signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars and was released after just one preseason game. “I knew all the right truths,” he said, “but I wasn’t fully living them out. My ego was wrapped up in it.”

Shortly afterward, news broke of the U.S. military’s withdrawal from Afghanistan, triggering a humanitarian crisis. As the situation unfolded, the Tim Tebow Foundation mobilized to respond. Tim flew to the Middle East, where he spent time serving in a refugee camp amidst chaos and suffering.

Looking back, he sees God’s timing clearly. “If I hadn’t been cut, I wouldn’t have been there. I wouldn’t have been free to do what I was really called to do—care for the most vulnerable.” What looked like a professional failure turned out to be a divine redirection.

The heart behind the Tim Tebow Foundation was planted years earlier, when a 15-year-old Tim met a boy in the jungles of the Philippines. The boy had been born with his feet on backwards and was viewed by many as cursed or disposable.

“I knew God didn’t see him that way,” Tim said. “But I also felt like God was asking me, ‘If you know this boy matters to Me, what are you going to do about it?’”

That moment became the driving force behind the foundation’s mission: to bring faith, hope, and love to those in need of a brighter day in their darkest hour. Today, that mission plays out through global efforts in orphan care,
