    The term "worldview" may not be the first that comes to mind when thinking of your Christian faith as it relates to those around you. Many often consider it a religion, a relationship, a creed by which they live their life, but it is often an unconscious fact that your faith becomes the lens through which you view everything around you, your “worldview”.Clarifying that Christian worldview is critical because it applies to everything and everyone you interact with. From work to relationships to your perspective on challenging global issues, the worldview you have has drastic impact on the way you encounter them.John Stonestreet, President of the Colson Center for Christian Worldview, joins Greg Leith on the podcast to discuss this very subject.
