At a Glance
Our worldview shapes what we think, how we live, and the kind of culture we create. So when our communities bear bitter fruit—poverty, corruption, injustice—we need to look at the roots below the surface. In this episode, we explore how worldviews are formed, how they shape entire societies, and why true transformation comes from working at this level.
Too often, Christian mission stops at conversion and overlooks the need for deep worldview discipleship, leaving people with many unbiblical cultural assumptions. Lasting change comes when our minds are renewed, leading to flourishing not only in our lives, but also in our families and nations as we live into God’s design.
Main Topics:
- What Is a Worldview? – How it forms and why it matters
- Ideas Flow Downstream – From philosophers to principles to lifestyles
- Rooted in Truth – How biblical worldview transforms hearts and societies
It starts with us. We must intentionally think and act differently than the world, based on the reality of God’s Kingdom.

Why does our worldview matter? Because it shapes what we think and do, and it shapes the world around us. When our communities and nations are filled with bitter fruit, we must examine the roots. As Christians, we are called to change the world for the better. It starts with us. We must intentionally think and act differently than the world, based on the reality of God’s Kingdom.

Christ’s ultimate return will end our world’s ongoing conflict between two kingdoms, one of light and one of darkness. In the meantime, what is our mission as Christians in the kingdom of light? First, we need to understand that the Gospel is not merely an escape plan from the world’s turmoil but a proclamation that Jesus Christ is the risen King and Lord of the world. If He is King, we are His subjects, agents of change, and ambassadors to the kingdom of darkness. Your mission as Jesus Christ’s vice-regent is to engage in the ongoing battle against evil, armed with the power of the Holy Spirit and guided by the teachings of Jesus. It is to cultivate cultures that reflect His truth, goodness, and beauty in every aspect of your life. We do not know when the battle between light and darkness will be decisively won. But until then, believers are called to courageously proclaim the Gospel, make disciples, and create cultures that honor the King. Learn more with our free online videos and training!
