Have you ever been in a conversation and you wish that you knew more about the biblical worldview on the issues?
00:06
I'm Dr.
00:07
Brenda McMenamin.
00:08
From teaching his story, I got to work for years with Dan Smithwick, who has developed a test to tell us how we're doing in our biblical worldview.
00:18
And he wrote this book called Pillars.
00:20
My pastors asked me to teach this to our congregation.
00:23
So I'm going to be doing a live Zoom class for nine weeks and I'm going to offer it to anyone that wants to join us.
00:32
Dan says the Pillars course is a worldview training conducted in accordance with the admonition of Scripture.
00:38
So he's got three different scriptures.
00:39
One of them is the out of Psalm 78 where the word tells parents to teach the next generation.
00:47
he commanded our fathers to teach their children that the next generation might know them.
00:52
He's talking about the mighty deeds of God.
00:54
The children yet unborn shall arise and tell them to their children so that they should set their hope in God and not forget the works of God, but keep his head, his commandments.
01:07
What a scripture for today.
01:08
He's got a couple of other scriptures, but then he's saying these verses speak to the biblical principle known as generational thinking.
01:17
We want to be equipped so we can pass our faith and our beliefs to the next generation.
01:23
That's something that we're just desperate to do right now, isn't it?
01:27
Contrary to the me first mindset so prevalent in America today, the Bible commands us to make important decisions and choices with future generations in mind.
01:38
The objective of this course is to train Christians in the ways of God with special emphasis on training our children and instilling in them core biblical truths such that they will carefully pass them on to the future generation.
01:56
Isn't that wonderful?
01:57
So if that's something that makes your heart beat, please join us.
02:03
Okay, so this is going to be online on Zoom.
02:08
It's going to be a nine week class.
02:10
It'll start on October 21st, which is a Tuesday, and go from 6 to 7:30 Eastern Standard Time for nine weeks.
02:19
And so you can read more information below, you'll have the sign up, you'll have a place where you can buy the book.
02:26
And then what we're coupling with this.
02:29
And again, this is what Dan has developed is a peers test.
02:33
the five areas that we're really going to focus on is American government, politics.
02:38
Okay, Politics is policy setting.
02:41
We want policy set based on biblical worldview so that everyone has liberty, not just Christians, but when you base it on biblical worldview, it gives everyone liberty.
02:54
So you've got the politics, education, economics, religion and social issues.
02:59
We'll go through one at a time.
03:02
I hope you join us.
03:04
I think it's going to bring all of us to the Lord and give us confidence to share our faith and reach those each in our sphere of influence.
03:14
I think that's exactly what God's doing right now, and it's exciting to be part of it, isn't it?
