Against Worldview: Reimagining Christian Formation as Growth in Wisdom

by Simon P Kennedy

Overview

Reframing the lenses of Christian worldview

• Recognize the limits and failures of Christian worldview education
• Consider a more organic approach to Christian learning and education
• Understand the value of wisdom over rigid frameworks

In Against Worldview: Reimagining Christian Formation as Growth in Wisdom, Simon P. Kennedy challenges the conventions of Christian worldview education and provides a better way.

Although the current concept of Christian worldview appears incontestable, it rests upon shaky philosophical foundations, fails to account for the complexities of how we interact with the world, and may even undermine the curiosity essential for true learning. But rather than shattering the lenses of Christian worldview, Kennedy reframes worldview around wisdom.

A biblical worldview is not downloaded all at once. It is cultivated piece by piece, as we learn about God, his world, and ourselves. Christian education is an organic process of learning to wisely nurture a biblical worldview.
