Inhaltsangabe

Just as fish in the ocean don't know they're wet, Christians usually don't realize they're being influenced by the postmodern worldview that dominates today's culture. Tom Neven, a journalist and book editor for Focus on the Family, helps students and young adults realize that everyone has a worldview and shows them how to compare the Christian worldview to prevalent modern and postmodern philosophies and arguments. He then applies the Christian worldview to crucial life issues such as politics, sexuality, art, music, and science, encouraging readers to apply the truth to all of life.Neven challenges readers with his logical and practical approach while appealing to them with his conversational, no-nonsense style. An important book to help students and young adults live as more effective witnesses in a postmodern culture.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Fish don't really know they're wet.But what about you? Have you ever thought that you might be immersed in an environment and not know it? Like fish are unaware of being in water, many Christians are just as unaware of the postmodern world they live in and the influence it has on their lives. Do Fish Know They're Wet? challenges students and young adults to compare a Christian worldview with other competing opinions of our culture. Inside, you'll learn- how and why various philosophies and subtle distortions of the truth affect arguments and lifestyle choices- what it really means to have a Christian worldview- how to apply your worldview in everything you see and do"Your worldview matters," Neven says, "because it affects the way you live, share the gospel, and become a good citizen, parent, or friend." From politics to relationships, from science to movies, from music to art, your worldview defines who you are and what you believe. Only when you step back and take a good look at the whole picture can you prepare to face the world as a Christian who knows what to believe-and what a difference it makes in the world.
