Faith for Life
Understanding the Times is a systematic way to understand the ideas that rule our world. While the material is expansive, the engaging, easy-to-understand writing style invites you to discover the truths of God—and our world. This classic should be on the shelf of every Christian home, on the desk of every pastor, and in the hands of every Christian student headed off to college.
Understanding the Times (9th-12th) prepares young believers to defend a Christian worldview against other belief systems.

Our world revolves around ideas. Politicians, military leaders, CEOs, media mo- guls, and academics may think they are in charge of world affairs, but what they think—the ideas in their heads—actually control them. Ideas are the guiding force behind every twist and turn in public opinion. They determine what we accept or reject in the arts, media, business, science, education, politics, family, church, and the list goes on endlessly.
The Bible has been the most influential book in the history of the world, printed, in part or in whole, in 2,800 languages worldwide. Christians believe the Bible is God’s Word. Through it, the creator of the universe speaks to humankind in a way he does nowhere else. If the Bible’s claim to reveal God is authoritative, then it extends to every area of life—to everyone in the world, at all times. If the Bible’s revelation about God is accurate, then what it says is authoritative.
Culture happens when humans interact with the natural world. Everyone participates in culture, and some people even help create or change it. Understanding the Culture is a guidebook for learning what culture is and how Christians can work to influence it for the better.
Foundations is the first volume to be released in the brand-new Understanding the Times Series for high school Bible. This Book one of a four-book series covers the nature and authority of the Bible and how to read it, the six acts and the interlude of the biblical metanarrative, the nature of God and of humanity, and Christian living individually and corporately. Upon completing this course, students will understand how the Bible tells the true story of all things and what that means for how we live our lives personally and alongside others.
