Description
Abstract: Developing a biblical worldview in ministry involves doctrine for- mation and practical education within families and churches. However, many struggle to teach theological truths in an applicable way. Equipping begins with renewing the mind and dismantling arguments that oppose the gospel (2 Cor- inthians 10:3–6). When families combat biblical thinking with biblical truth, children are more likely to obey Christ and live accordingly. Paul’s offensive strategy to wage war and combat biblical reasoning offers an effective model for worldview transformation, leading to gospel-centered living. By addressing biblical thinking, barriers to salvation and sanctification are removed, strengthening families and churches.
