Summit Ministries

What can Christian parents do to help their professing Christian son or daughter grow in their faith rather than plummet to unbelief?" Young people are now facing not only the secular battle on the college campus, but uncertainty in the church with the rise of the postmodern or emerging church. This week on The Christian Worldview, David will speak with Dr. David Noebel, founder and president of Summit Ministries. Summit.org says, "Summit views its role in God's kingdom as a catalyst to counteract this alarming trend. However, our ultimate goal supersedes simply training. As Christians are challenged to stand strong in their faith and defend truth, they will also be equipped to have a positive influence on the society in which they live." Tune in this weekend to find out how "professors become digressors" and what Christian parents can do to help their children stay strong in this "age of uncertainty."

This weekend 1,978 years ago was the most significant moment in the history of the world. A 33-year-old man named Jesus from the northern Israeli town of Nazareth was crucified in Jerusalem on Friday, and then amazingly, is said to have risen from the dead on Sunday appearing to over 500 people at one time. What if every detail of Christ's life, death, and resurrection is accurate and there is evidence to prove it? Dr. Don Bierle, Founder of Faith Search International, one of the world's foremost organizations on proclaiming the Christian faith with evidence, will be on the program to answer my and your questions about Resurrection Weekend. So tune in this weekend to The Christian Worldview with your question in hand as we look into the realities of the resurrection and our response to it.

New York Governor Eliot Spitzer is an intelligent man who scored 1590 out of 1600 on the SAT test, attended Princeton University, Harvard Law School, led one of the most influential states in America, and was a possible future presidential candidate. How could such a smart person make such an unwise decision? And then there's leading Democrat presidential candidate Barack Obama, graduate of Harvard Law School, first black editor of Harvard Law Review, and married to Michelle Obama, another Harvard graduate. By all accounts, Barack Obama is a very intelligent man. Yet how could such a smart person like Barack Obama, who proclaims that he has the judgment to lead America and the ability to be a uniter, be so unwise as to be a long-standing member of an anti-American black supremacist, church? Tune in this weekend to find out why wisdom is more important, much more important, than intelligence.

I've spent the last three days listening to some of the strongest, most biblical teachers of our Christian faith; John MacArthur, Tom Pennington, Rick Holland, Al Mohler, and Steve Lawson—all lecturers at the latest Shepherd's Conference held at Grace Church in Los Angeles, California.

This Saturday in our inaugural national program, we're going to go back to basics and come up with three key fundamentals of the Christian worldview, contrast them to other worldviews, and draw out the ramifications. To help us, John Stonestreet, executive director of Summit Ministries, will be joining me to explain why "ideas have consequences" and introduce you to all the various resources of Summit and how they can help sharpen the Christian worldview of your entire family. Don't miss the national launch of The Christian Worldview. See you Saturday!
