Sample Of A Worldview Analysis

Decent Essays
Class,
I think the time that I felt my worldview was tested the most was when I had an opportunity to live in Australia with people from all over the world. Although most of us were North Americans there were so many times that each of us did something that seemed normal but was different then how others would have reacted. This particular testing was important to my testing my integrity because I realized in the beginning I had a choice to be whoever I wanted to be. God took me through a time of allowing me to look at the worldview I had and test if those were the things that I really believed. I realized what I had very strong convictions and where God was shaping my worldview to one that was more openminded.

    Good evening, Wakesha I enjoyed reading your post for this week’s assignment. The biblical worldview does provides guidance to the Christian health administrator in developing willingness and hope as an organizational leader. Wakesha, you stated one of my favorite bible verses in correlation with this week’s discussion board question. You stated, “And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them (Romans 8:28 New Living Translation).

I felt my love ones had no logical reasoning for allowing me to grow into an adult feeling these type damaging emotions and cognitive illusions. According to Psalm 51:10 “Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me.”…

    How can someone strengthen his or her biblical worldview? I believe this is done by going back to the basics. Believers will be strong in their faith and in their worldview when they spend time in prayer, bible study, and apply the truths of Scripture to their lives. After reading about this topic this week, I am convicted and motivated to spend more time with God each day. While I feel that I have a fairly strong biblical worldview now, I know that I must continue to grow in my faith so that I will be able to withstand the temptations of this world, the pleasures of the flesh, and the conveniences that so easily entice all of…
