“…if any man aspires to the office of overseer, it is a fine work he desires to do.  An overseer, then, must be above reproach…”
1 Tim. 3:1-2

The implosion is now complete for Bill Hybels and Willow Creek Church, the highly-influential mega-church in Chicago that Hybels founded and led for four decades.  However the consequences will be felt by those involved and the evangelical church at large for years to come.

This week the entire board […]

TCW Minute: A Good Conscience (Week of July 30, 2018)

2018-08-02T21:22:22-05:00Jul 30, 2018|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: , , |

Do you have a good conscience?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

The apostle Paul said to Timothy, “the goal of our instruction is love from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.”  (1 Timothy 1:5)

The conscience is an inner alert system to keep you from sin and impel you to righteousness.

But the conscience is not infallible.  We should not claim an inner voice is necessarily from God.  […]

2024-02-20T11:35:27-06:00Jul 27, 2018|Categories: Spiritual Growth, The Christian Worldview Radio Program, Theology|Tags: , , , |

Fight the good fight, keeping faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and suffered shipwreck in regard to their faith.  1 Timothy 1:18-19

The dictionary defines the conscience as: “the inner sense of what is right or wrong in one’s conduct or motives.”

God gives each person a conscience, an inner guide to right and wrong.  It acts as a warning system to avoid what is sinful […]

Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God, which things we also speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, combining spiritual thoughts with spiritual words. 1 Corinthians 2:12

Last weekend, we discussed the “Woke Movement” that […]

TCW Minute: What is the Worldview of Millennials? (Week of July 9, 2018)

2018-07-13T09:43:22-05:00Jul 09, 2018|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: , , |

What is the worldview of Millennials?  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

The Millennial generation are those age 16-36.  They are the largest living generation of Americans at 92 million.

Public education has influenced them to believe there is no standard for truth.  Pragmatic evangelical churches have catered to their short attention spans, caused by Internet immersion, by entertaining them.

Because many have grown up in broken homes, they desire authentic relationships.  And they […]

The Millennial generation is generally categorized as being born between 1980-2000, which makes them aged 18-38.  92 million strong, they are the […]

I know that after my departure savage wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock; 30 and from among your own selves men will arise, speaking perverse things, to draw away the disciples after them.  Acts 20:29

As our guest Justin Peters said two weeks ago on The Christian Worldview, there are some serious “cracks” forming within Evangelicalism right now that compromise biblical doctrine and the gospel and threaten to undermine once-sound churches.

Four pressure […]

TCW Minute: Raising Godly Children (Week of June 18, 2018)

2018-06-22T13:14:45-05:00Jun 18, 2018|Categories: The Christian Worldview Minute|Tags: , , , , , |

Raising children who love and obey God.  This is David Wheaton, host of The Christian Worldview.

With the abundance of child-rearing resources, it may seem surprising that the New Testament has only one verse that directly addresses the issue.

Ephesians 6:4 says, “Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.”

“Don’t provoke” means don’t be overbearing.  “Bring them up” implies a daily, ongoing endeavor.  “Discipline” […]

Fathers, do not provoke your children to anger, but bring them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord.  Ephesians 6:4

Christians spend a lot of time working toward political change, whether through issue advocacy or electing certain candidates.

Christians also spend a lot of time trying to “redeem the culture”, through social programs and events or creating more wholesome media, music, etc.

All of these are well-intentioned attempts to lead people and society toward God.  […]
