The Weekly Sage hopes to regularly bring brief profiles of key contributors to thought and faith before a Christian audience for historical education and awareness of valuable resources. William James “It is not difficult to notice a curious unrest in the philosophic atmosphere of the time, a loosening of old landmarks, a softening of oppositions, […]

The Mailbag! – Vol. 15
11 Feb 2019
Matt’s Marvelous Mailbag seeks to provide marginally adequate answers to much better questions about politics, economics, social life, theology, or any potpourri you see fit to have answered. Send questions to mailbag.bereans@gmail.com. I was watching the last VLOG, and, right towards the end, Dr. Wheeler mentioned that he would probably rebel against government much more […]

I happened to catch a couple of minutes of the Rush Limbaugh program, in which he was playing some snippets from an interview of Kurt Anderson and Charlie Rose on PBS, on the subject of Anderson’s new book, Fantasyland: How America Went Haywire. The theme of the books seems to center on how conservative talk […]

President Trump has withdrawn from the Paris Climate Agreement. I will say at the outset that I support this move. Let’s settle the “legal” issues first.

In the last post I introduced the concepts of a worldview, of integration and specifically of a Christian worldview. I assumed the Scriptures as the “bedrock” foundation of that worldview, without proof or examination. That is not to say this approach is fideistic, as there are good reasons for this assumption. But that has to […]

It has been about 35 years since both my conversion to Christianity and reading a life-changing book on Christian worldview, entitled Idols for Destruction by Herbert Schlossberg. It was this book that began my intense interest in integrating my Christian faith with the disciplines with which I interacted. My deep interest has never disappeared and […]

An Exemplar of Christian Worldview
07 Oct 2015
Our Bereans readers know how passionate I am about the issue of Christian worldview—taking every thought captive to Christ—in every aspect of thought and life. I haven’t lost any of that passion, but I am not the only one who cares about it. My colleague, Richard Tison, here at Cedarville University, also possesses an intense […]
