Podcasts about total truth liberating christianity

Bestselling and speaker Nancy Pearcey has some great insight and information based on her book The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes. Nancy was one of the hippies who stumbled across Francis Schaeffer's ministry L'Abri in Switzerland in the early 1970s and was surprised to discover that there are actually good reasons and arguments supporting Christianity. She gave up her agnosticism and ever since has been writing about Christianity as a worldview that applies to every area of life. Nancy is best known for her book Total Truth: Liberating Christianity from Its Cultural Captivity. She earned an MA from Covenant Theological Seminary and pursued further graduate work in History of Philosophy at the Institute for Christian Studies in Toronto. Currently, she is professor and scholar in residence at Houston Baptist University, as well as a fellow of the Discovery Institute and editor-at-large of The Pearcey Report. As founding editor of the radio program BreakPoint, she also coauthored a monthly column with Chuck Colson in Christianity Today. Nancy has spoken in the US Capitol and the White House; at universities such as Princeton, Stanford, Dartmouth, and USC; to actors in Hollywood and artists in New York City; on NPR and C-SPAN.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

My guest today is Mike Schutt, Executive Director of the Worldview Academy. Mike has been thinking, writing, and consulting on worldview formation for over 30 years, including helping law students bring their worldview into the practice of law. His thoughts on worldview and Law have been published in his Redeeming Law: Christian Calling and the Legal Profession (InterVarsity Press, 2007). In this podcast we discuss: What a worldview is Why it is so important to understand worldviews The benefits of living according to the biblical worldview How Mike discovered the importance of worldviews during college  How worldview issues permeate all university classes Ways Christian students have faltered due to not understanding worldviews (especially related to views of knowledge and truth)  How we are shaped by our culture's worldview, often without knowing it The main worldviews we should understand Understanding worldview as both ideas and loves The relationship of worldview to our actions, wisdom and flourishing Why Christian students struggle so much with the scientific naturalist worldview How to evaluate worldviews and develop a robust and consistent biblical worldview Three simple questions to evalue any worldview claim made in classes or conversations The relationship between spiritual disciplines and living out the biblical worldview Ways your local church can help you develop your worldview Two questions to ask others in your church (or on campus) to find worldview mentors (and eventually mentor others) Why the Christian worldview is superior to all others Ways students can more fully live out their Christian worldview Changing ways students are interacting with Scripture Resources mentioned during our conversation: Albert Wolters, Creation Regained: Biblical Basics for a Reformational Worldview James Sire, The Universe Next Door: A Basic Worldview Catalog Worldview Academy “How to Watch a Movie, Using Top Gun: Maverick as an Example,” College Faith podcast #23 with Drew Trotter James K.

I have been fascinated for some years now by the efforts of many Christians to sort out who they are, politically. For the longest time, they were nobody. Then came Jerry Falwell and the Moral Majority; and politics hasn’t recovered from that yet.Now we have a Christian right and a Christian left in this country, and that is somehow disquieting. Nancy Pearcey, in her book Total Truth: Liberating Christianity from Its Cultural Captivity, has made a very strong case that Christians should not allow themselves to be marginalized. And that disturbs some people who would rather keep Christianity separated into the private sphere of life and out of the public eye. But now that Christians have awakened from their long sleep and considered that perhaps their faith ought to inform the way they vote, there are counter voices being raised. For one thing, most churches and ministries are recognized as non-profit organizations. Therefore, churches are not supposed to support this or that candidate, nor any ballot issue, for that matter. And that raises the interesting question: Well, is it okay to preach that abortion is wrong?These are the rules we run into, and we have to play by them, but we also have every right to discuss principles—in church, in print, or on the air. It remains to be seen how long it will be allowed for churches to condemn immoral behavior. Nevertheless, where do Christians fit in the political spectrum? Are they more conservative than liberal? Are they more socialist than nationalist? Are Christians, politically, working toward a just society or a compassionate one; and what difference (if any) lies between the two?

Well known author and Christian thinker, Nancy Pearcey, joins Dr. Dan Peterson to discuss a variety of topics including the time she spent with Francis Schaeffer, her conversion to Christianity, and the role of Christian educators.  Pearcey has been dubbed by The Economist as "America's preeminent evangelical Protestant female intellectual" and her books include Total Truth: Liberating Christianity from Its Cultural Captivity, and Love Thy Body: Answering Hard Questions about Life and Sexuality.

Heralded as America's preeminent evangelical Protestant female intellectual, Nancy Pearcey is a brilliant thinker, an accomplished author and a highly sought after lecturer on matters pertaining to culture and worldview. She is probably most well-known for her award-winning book, Total Truth: Liberating Christianity from Its Cultural Captivity, in which she makes a passionate case that Christianity is not just religious truth but truth about total reality. In her most recent book, Love Thy Body: Answering Hard Questions about Life and Sexuality, Pearcey argues that secularism denigrates the body and destroys the basis for human rights. In this episode of That's Worth Repeating, Richard and Brian discuss a stunning and quotable quote by the notable Nancy Pearcey from a TV interview about this book in which she succinctly summarizes the twisted justification for terminating an unborn human life. Needless to say, this episode is pretty heavy...

In today’s world, many of our female loved ones are engaged in a very personal spiritual battle about their identity and calling as women, and how motherhood fits into that calling. This episode shows how the mistake of overvaluing motherhood will hurt them and how undervaluing motherhood can be devastating. Only the biblical worldview gets this balance right; so that is our topic today.I highly recommend the primary source used in this episode to evaluate the impact of the Industrial Revolution on family life, Nancy Pearcey’s book, Total Truth: Liberating Christianity from its Cultural Captivity

Deception Detection Radio Network                        presents         Soaring Eagle Radio with                  Mike Spaulding                 and Special Guest Nancy Pearcey In Mere Christianity, CS Lewis noted that, “Nearly all that we call human history... is one long terrible story of man trying to find something other than God which will make him happy.” The cultural mantra most often heard today is “don’t think just believe” and that is true whether you find yourself in a church, on a college campus, and even the workplace. Asking questions, especially questions that challenge the status quo are off-limits in many places and on many subjects. But does this uncritical approach to life really provide any emotional satisfaction? Is it really possible to go through life without assessing the reasons why we believe and act in certain ways as opposed to believing and acting in certain other ways? The fact is friends, people want answers to their very serious questions. This in turn means that people believe truth exists. Do you consider yourself prepared to answer questions from your friends, family, or co-workers? This episode of SER is my conversation with author and apologist Nancy Pearcey. Nancy bio Nancy Pearcey is the author of “Total Truth: Liberating Christianity from Its Cultural Captivity”, which won a 2005 ECPA Gold Medallion Award, and “How Now Shall We Live?” (coauthored by Harold Fickett and Chuck Colson), which won a 2000 ECPA Gold Medallion Award. Her most recent release and the subject of our conversation today is entitled “Finding Truth: 5 Principles for Unmasking Atheism, Secularism, and Other God Substitutes.” Pearcey has been a visiting scholar at Biola University’s Torrey Honors Institute, professor of worldview studies at Cairn University, and Francis A. Schaeffer scholar at the World Journalism Institute. Currently she is professor of apologetics and scholar in residence at Houston Baptist University, a fellow at the Discovery Institute’s Center for Science and Culture, and editor at large of The Pearcey Report.
