Biblical Principles Applied > Impacting Our Culture

This article examines the popular idea that science is the only accurate arbiter of what is real and factual—the axiom that only the things we can prove empirically are worthy of being called truth. Thus, secular, non-religious values are the only objective values to be trusted. This episode examines the deficiencies of secularism—the under the sun view of life as described in Ecclesiastes—and the far superior teaching that man is more than a blob of protoplasm; he is the very image bearer of God, Himself.

What is the fastest way for Christians to lose their influence in the culture? It might be by forgetting two foundational worldview principles that are so important that God mentions them both in the very first chapter of the Bible. This episode identifies these two principles and how embracing them can change our lives.

In his book, The God Delusion, Richard Dawkins argued that you cannot be an intelligent scientific thinker and still hold any religious beliefs. This widespread opinion is held by many, especially those in the world of academia, where the rising generation will almost certainly encounter this potential obstacle to their faith. This episode examines from a biblical perspective Dawkins’ argument—that if you are an intelligent thinker, you will jettison your Christian faith.
