Nothing shapes your life more than your worldview. Everybody has one, it's the lens through which you view and interpret the world, i.e. absolutely everything. Some call it a philosophy of life. It is is similar to a belief system but bigger. It includes all the things you believe and value even if you are an atheist. So, what's yours?
Can you get your mind around it'? Can you put it into words? Can you analyze your worldview and those of others? If you're like many others this is difficult for you, and that's why I want to talk about it. In this talk I want to help you recognize the elements of a worldview in order to evaluate one, especially your own. For example, all worldviews have core presuppositions about reality. A worldview can be coherent or less coherent, and it can be consistent or inconsistent. Based on these three criteria alone your worldview can be strong, mediocre or weak. Therefore it can give you either confidence about the meaning and purpose of life, or a lack of it. And who doesn't want confidence? If you've never or rarely thought about your own worldview then this talk is for you. I've spent a lot of time developing my own, and I can tell you it's worth it. Join me as we critique our own worldviews and learn how to help others critique theirs. You'll be really glad you did.
