John 8:31-32
To the Jews who had believed him, Jesus said, “If you hold to my teaching, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
A worldview, defined in simple terms, is a concept which includes all dimensions of reality, from the existing individual to the universe itself. The worldview of a person or a group is that which brings integration—a comprehensive interpretation—to life. Worldview includes a sense of meaning and value and principles of action. It is much more than merely an “outlook” or an “attitude.”

What is truth?
-Pontius Pilate
Source of Truth: Reason or Revelation?
As Christians, we believe the ultimate source of truth is in the Revelation of an Almighty, Personal, and Purposeful God!
The material world is neither divine nor uncreated.
God exists. He is a Free Agent.
God is both great and good!
God is in control of His creation.
God has uniquely designed human beings to live purposefully in His creation.
God communicates personally with human beings in ways that are comprehensible and coherent with His intentions.
God has responded to humanity’s plight redemptively.
God has revealed Himself through His World, His Spirit, His Word, and The Word.
Believing and trusting Him leads to freedom!
The Bible is both the story of God and the true story of the world . . . So the Bible is not, or merely, a book about how to have a better life or how to handle life’s problems. It is a book that explains the universe and how God is in the process of redeeming and restoring it to its original good, true, and beautiful state.
