Dr. George Barna: “Raising Spiritual Champions”

Dr. Barna’s research shows that young people who are grounded in essential biblical truths are far more likely to remain committed to Christ. That’s why every Christian parent, grandparent, and pastor must be intentional about giving the next generation a firm foundation in the Word of God.

Dr. Barna reminds us that the central mission of every Christian is not to produce churchgoers or “good people,” but to make true disciples of Jesus Christ. A real disciple is someone who thinks like Jesus, lives like Jesus, and helps others do the same—and that is only possible through a biblical worldview.

A person’s worldview shapes every decision they make. It determines the values they hold, directs their behavior, and ultimately defines their identity—either rooted in self or in Christ.

In the end, worldview is not a side issue. It sets the trajectory for our lives, our families, our churches, and our culture.
