Summary

Your deepest held beliefs, while they affect every aspect of life (including marriage), aren't always biblical. This can make it incredibly hard to discuss sensitive topics or work through deep disagreements in marriage. As we've discussed often, your beliefs always inform your behaviors. In this week's episode we talked about what a worldview is while contrasting biblical Christianity against 5 non-Christian worldviews. You may be surprised how often non-Christian worldviews influence your family dynamic. We had a ton of fun with this one, and we hope it blesses you!

0:35.1	And that's, I think, the root of what we're trying to cover here is where are we being
0:39.5	kind of sold a bill of goods when it comes to marriage, when it comes to family, when
0:44.8	it comes to the Christian life, or just life as a human being.
0:50.2	And our goal with this episode is to, I think, given the times that we're in, there's been
0:56.3	a lot of unrest.
0:59.6	Why?
1:00.6	Why is there such division?
1:02.2	Okay, very complex questions, but we really want to get down to the root of authority and

1:09.2	And we're going to do that by defining clearly what worldview is, what Christian worldview
1:12.5	is, and contrasting that with some secular worldviews.
