DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR WORLDVIEW IS?

The term “worldview” may sound a bit abstract, but simply put, your worldview is the set of assumptions that make up your personal outlook on the nature of the world and how to live in that world day by day. It is your “set of beliefs about the most important issues in life.”

It is important to realize that everyone has a worldview whether or not he or she can recognize or state it. You may not think about your worldview when you make decisions or express opinions, but it influences your thoughts, feelings and actions. Your worldview is based on how you see answers to some rather important questions about life, which include:
(1) Who or what is God?
(2) Who am I and how do I operate in my world?
(3) How can I tell right from wrong?
(4) When it’s all over, where do I go?
(5) How can I know the truth; for that matter, how can I be sure that I know anything?
(6) What does my life mean, and how do I fit into history, if at all? Pp. 8, 9
