Living the Chtn Worldview-Thinking

Welcome to Every Thought Captive, I’m Phil Steiger.

We live in a world and in a culture in which it is sometimes hard to separate the wheat from the chaff when it comes to worldview issues.  As Christians, we should often ask ourselves if activities, movies, music, entertainment, and so many other things are coherent with a Christ-centered life.  Even though that is a difficult task sometimes, it is something we are called to do living as Christians in our world.

In 2 Corinthians 10:5, Paul says that we all should “[tear] down barriers erected against the truth of God.”  He doesn’t say that just the apostles do that or that just the leaders do that-he says “we.”

God gave us all minds and the ability to think.  You don’t need to be a genius to think about the world critically, you just need to be willing.  One of the greatest tools you have that can help you live your Christian worldview is your mind-don’t be afraid to think.
