“ Reflecting on all my educational experiences , I thank the Lord for the blessing of understanding how my worldview impacts my life . . .”

LAUNCH a

Christian School !

by Dr . Jeff Myers and Dr . David A . Noebel , I examined political , religious , economic , psychological , and scientific ideologies across cultures that culminated in an awareness of the diverse , complicated battlefield in which this child of the King was called to serve . The students around me in the halls of that small Christian school became real people with real souls in need of the love of Christ . The homework from those dedicated high school teachers turned into opportunities to grow in my knowledge of this reality , informing and adjusting my worldview . Student leadership opportunities called me to invest in others in the way I had been so long invested in . Through all of these experiences , my worldview revealed true purpose in the seemingly mundane and ordinary life of a student .
Present-day , I find myself walking the brick pathways of a Christian university , studying in higher academia for a calling rather than a career . Reflecting on all my educational experiences , I recognize and thank the Lord for the blessing of understanding how my worldview impacts my life and how it has defeated the cultural notion of a divide between my sacred walk with God and a secular walk with the world . Instead , I live with purpose , detecting God at work in my life to advance His Kingdom and seeing every aspect of life and learning as an opportunity to become more effective in fulfilling His purposes for my life . Ultimately , worldview building and connecting is a lifetime process ; however , I would never have understood this process and its significance if Christian educators had not taken the time to invest in me through their calling to show me the importance of worldview . Every child and student can live with purpose . Help them to see how and why they can . ■
