Christian Worldview Links

 

Here are some other sites that we suggest are worth checking out.
Worldview Academy

Worldview Academy is a non-denominational ministry committed to training students and parents to think and live in accord with the Christian worldview. They pursue this mission via three primary programs: WVA Leadership Camps, week-long camps that train and equip students 13 and older; “Mere Christianity” Worldview Weekends, providing the same basic education for adults and teens at host churches nation-wide; and educational resources.

Worldview Matters

Which Way Does Your Worldview Compass Point? Like a compass pointing north, a worldview provides the bearings a person needs for determining which direction to take when any issue is faced. The only problem is, not every worldview points north. “Think Again!” is a multi-media, interactive workshop that clarifies the latitude and longitute lines of a biblically based worldview.

Christian Information Ministries

Bill Crouse and Russ Wise are former Probe staff members who have written prodigiously on a number of current issues from a Christian perspective. Bill also offers the Rapid Response Report, an analysis of important issues in our culture today that you can read online or receive by e-mail: www.rapidresponsereport.com

Leadership University

LU has an awesome amount of information on a wide variety of topics of interest to high school and college students. This is a terrific resource for those seeking a Christian perspective.

Stand to Reason

Greg Koukl’s ministry is building Christian thinkers for the public defense of the faith. This site has articles on abortion, apologetics, ethics, evolution, homosexuality, philosophy, life, science, social issues, and theology.

Spiritual Counterfeits Project

For years, SCP has been providing in-depth Christian perspective on the enemy’s deceptions and schemes in arenas ranging from near-death experiences to virtual reality to the latest New Age trends.

Access Research Network

Visit this site for a responsible, Christian perspective on science, technology and society. The folks at ARN have been friends of Probe for a long time.

Vital Signs Ministries

Vital Signs Ministries is a Christ-centered pro-life agency, created to help tell the truth about abortion, infanticide, euthanasia, chastity and other life issues. They are a group of Christians who genuinely desire to obey God’s commands to seek justice for those threatened by the death ethic which now rampages through our culture.

The Things That Matter Most (and I-Tunes)

Airing on major talk radio stations in Houston and Dallas, this program explores what we believe and why we believe it with guests as diverse as theologian R.C. Sproul and atheist Sam Harris. Each week hosts (longtime worldview friend of Probe) Lael Arrington and Rick Davis explore scholarly evidence and fascinating personal stories about God and eternity, reason and faith, purpose and meaning with both skeptics and true believers.

Favorites of Other Probe Staff…

The Biblical Studies Foundation

This is a treasure trove of biblical commentaries, message/sermon illustrations, well-written essays and even the work-in-progress “NET Bible.” Teachers and pastors will find this a tremendous resource for their preparation.

Christianity and Homosexuality Home Page

With links to articles by both Exodus International and Homosexuals Anonymous (Christian organizations ministering to those seeking help for their homosexuality), this page is an excellent resource for those seeking to understand this issue that holds suffering people in its grip.

The Medical Institute for Sexual Health

The Medical Institute is a nonprofit medical organization founded in 1992 by gynecologist Joe S. McIlhaney, Jr., M.D., designed to confront the world epidemics of nonmarital pregnancy and sexually transmitted disease. The only 100 percent effective way to avoid nonmarital pregnancy and STD infection is to avoid sexual activity outside a mutually faithful lifelong relationship — marriage. The Medical Institute believes there is a new sexual revolution underway — one based on science, built on character and bridged through education.

Bible Prayer Fellowship

This organization exists to “share how you can know God intimately and enjoy the abundant life He gives to those who seek Him. We want you to be one of our prayer partners. Together let’s learn to pray prayers that really transform individuals, families, small groups and churches.”

C.S. Lewis Society of California

Good resources for fans of Christian worldview master C.S. Lewis.

Forum of Christian Leaders

The Forum of Christian Leaders online (FOCL) is a web site which presents audio and video recordings of talks by Christian leaders from Europe and America. Recordings come from the annual European Leadership Forum which Rick Wade attended several years, and cover a wide range of topics in such areas as apologetics, discipleship, theology, economics and business, counseling and psychology, education, leadership, and culture and art. The Forum is a place for Christians in leadership positions to interact and support each other, so presenters speak from their own experience in ministry. Presentation formats include answers to specific questions, short talks, workshops, webinars, and longer courses. This is a rich resource!

Science and Faith Conference

Are science and faith at war? Does science undermine or corroborate belief in God? Does faith suppress or inspire scientific research? Explore these questions and more at this two-day conference held at the Riley Conference Center on the campus of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas.

Featured speakers include Dr. William Dembski, author of The Design Revolution and other books; Dr. Stephen Meyer, author of Signature in the Cell: DNA and the Evidence for Intelligent Design; Dr. Jay Richards, co-author of The Privileged Planet: How Our Place in the Cosmos Is Designed For Discovery; and Dr. John West, author of Darwin Day in America: How Our Politics and Culture Have Been Dehumanized in the Name of Science.

Sessions will explore a Biblical theology of nature; the role of Christianity in the founding of modern science; the impact of Darwinian Evolution on ethics, society, Biblical studies and theology; and the scientific evidence for intelligent design and its implications for theism.

This conference will be of special interest to seminary students, college students, and pastors and other church leaders. At the end of the conference there will be breakout sessions for students, pastors, and church leaders on how to incorporate science and faith issues into one’s church, ministry, or career.

Probe president Dr. Ray Bohlin, a Fellow of the Discovery Institute, is one of the speakers.

Sheep Among Wolves Audio Set

 

https://www.probe.org/sheep-among-wolves/ The creator of the Mind Games conference, the late Jerry Solomon, was featured on a week-long series of broadcasts on Family Life Today in 2001. Jerry brought with him into the studio two students, one who had attended Mind Games, and one who did not. He role-plays a hostile professor antagonistic toward Christianity, and you can hear the effects of Mind Games training on both students.

Listen to these broadcasts and you’ll understand why it’s so important to equip students for the challenges to their faith they will face in a world increasingly hostile to Christianity. . . and why you’ll want to send someone you love to Mind Games.
