Past TCW Minutes
Identity in Christ (March 14-20, 2016)
How would you answer the question, “Who am I?” This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
Is your primary identity defined in terms of your job (“I’m a banker”), your family (“I’m a wife and mother”), your favorite pastime (“I’m a snow boarder”), or perhaps your former way of living (“I’m a recovering alcoholic”)?
While these may be part of one’s identity, for the Christian, one’s identity should be grounded in “Who I am in Christ.”
The apostle Paul states in 1 Corinthians 6 that all Christians were unrepentant sinners, “but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God”
This weekend, we’ll speak with pastor Greg Gilbert about Jesus and the gospel.
Climate Change (March 7-13, 2016)
What’s the truth about climate change? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
Humanistic environmentalists sound the alarm that man is causing catastrophic climate change and that global authority is required to save our planet. The truth is very different.
God said to Adam and Eve in the first chapter of Genesis: “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth. (Genesis 1:28
)
God tells us to “rule over” His creation, as a good steward would thoughtfully manage the property of a landowner, neither destroying it nor over-protecting it.
This weekend, we’ll hear a past interview with beloved author Jerry Bridges, who recently went to be with the Lord.
Defending the Faith (Feb 29 – Mar 6, 2016)
Can you defend your faith? This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
Christians are losing “home field advantage” in our society. In conversations with others, we can not assume once-common views like God exists, the Bible is true, and Jesus Christ is the only way of salvation. Skeptics often push back hard.
1 Peter 3 says, “do not fear their intimidation … but sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence.”
The biblical worldview is the most logical and defendable of all, and every Christian should be able to offer evidence for basic tenets of the faith.

This weekend, we’ll discuss what Christians should know about the environmental movement.
Millennials and Christianity (Feb 22-28, 2016)
Millennials departing from the faith. This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.
We have all heard the tragic stories of children being brought up in Christian homes and churches and yet in their twenties embracing the prevalent humanistic worldview of our day on issues such as evolution, morality, and religious pluralism.
In short, they get evangelized away from Christianity, by teachers, peers, and culture.
Conviction of sin and true conversion through repentance and faith in Jesus Christ is the key to staying true to the faith. But also being convinced of the truth of Christianity through sound apologetic training will help keep them from departing in the first place.

This weekend, we’ll broadcast LIVE from an apologetics conference.
