Here’s a worldview definition. See if it’s how you’d describe it.

That’s a fair worldview definition.

But it makes it seem like a worldview happens to you by your circumstances or surrounding. I prefer to believe you shape your worldview. It doesn’t shape you.

What I mean by that is…you choose to believe facts and figures or fantasy. Choose is the operative word. No one makes you believe what you believe. You believe it because either you can’t disprove it, or it settles well within your comfort zone. A worldview can be stiff-necked, or spineless. Humble or haughty. Effective or effaced. Right or wrong.

Did I lose you at that last comparison?

Yes, worldviews can be right or wrong. For example, if your worldview says it’s perfectly right to annihilate another group of people whose worldview differs from yours, your worldview is wrong. And if your worldview states that “all men and women are created equal and endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights“, then your worldview is right.

You can argue or disagree, but these are both self-evident points.

The worldview definition I shared with you above talks about philosophy of life or conception of the world. If you have a notion that life happened as a result of some serendipitous connection of electricity and ooze, then your worldview might be skewed toward simple survival. But if believe you’re a created being designed by a living, loving, personal Creator, you’re more likely to put others before yourself.

So…your worldview is extremely important because it can have eternal consequences. What you do, say, and believe can change hearts, minds, and spirits. People can go from merely diving into destiny to Heavenly hope.

What’s your worldview definition? Do you know? Do you care? Is it right?
