In the past, changes in behavior and in belief have been leading indicators for missionaries that Christian conversion had occurred. But these alone--or even together--are insufficient for a gospel understanding of conversion. For effective biblical mission, Paul G. Hiebert argues, we must add a third element: a change in worldview. Here he offers a comprehensive study of worldview--its philosophy, its history, its characteristics, and the means for understanding it. He then provides a detailed analysis of several worldviews that missionaries must engage today, addressing the impact of each on Christianity and mission. A biblical worldview is outlined for comparison. Finally, Hiebert argues for gospel ministry that seeks to transform people's worldviews and offers suggestions for how to do so.

The goal of many evangelical educators is to facilitate biblical thinking and the worldview transformation of their students. Yet, aside from upholding a set of moral behaviors or maintaining positions on issues perceived to be "Christian," the goals and aspirations of most evangelical young people differ little from their unbelieving peers. As George Barna has noted, "We have a generation coming up that . . . isn't looking at Christianity to answer spiritual concerns . . . We either change or we lose them." Worldview as Worship contends that the approach taken by most evangelical educators to the issue of worldview transformation has neglected to address two fundamental components of worldviews. First, that our initial worldviews are not philosophical systems but rather faith dispositions and that worldview transformation cannot simply present the biblical worldview as a more rational or logical system, but must address issues of the heart as well as the mind. Second, unlike philosophies that are individual, worldviews are communal and are learned and transformed within the context of community practice. Appealing to Paul's teaching in Romans 12:1-2, Worldview as Worship approaches the "renewing of your mind" as the result of the believer's presentation of themselves as a "holy sacrifice . . . which is your spiritual service of worship." The book advocates an approach to worldview transformation that focuses on believers as apprentices rather than simply as students--an approach that holds true to the biblical model of discipleship. As a result, worldview transformation works best when the application of faith to the issues of learning and life are modeled by the faith community and where students are given the opportunity to put faith into practice.

The Apostle Paul urged the church in Rome to "...be transformed by the renewing of your minds" (Rom. 12:2). This call extends to all Christians today, but the question is, what does real transformation look like? This booklet provides essential principles for transforming your perspectives on life, your calling, and on how you engage public life. The journey begins by first believing the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, who was crucified for our sins and raised from the dead-it starts on the inside. As we grow in Jesus, our faith should extend to the outside, to all aspects of our personal and public lives- relationships, marriage, family, church, work, and the world. This booklet can provide tools to help bring the kingdom of God (God's rule and reign) to bear in every sphere of life, both personal and public. Endorsements: "If you are looking for essential life principles for your personal walk and your public life, next to the Bible, you would do well to have this book in your hands, in your mind, and in your heart. Take them in today and live them out tomorrow. This world will be a better place." --Luis Bush, Transform World "As a young lawmaker 30 years ago, a book like this would have really helped me in fashioning public policy to help produce the best results for the people I was elected to serve. I heartily encourage all who see themselves as public servants to read this great work." --Hon. Hal Jones, Hawaii State Legislature (ret.); President, Global Hope (GHNI); President, Geneva Institute (GILPP) "I have witnessed firsthand Art Lindsley's passion to facilitate spiritual transformation among nations. His thoughts on this important subject are well articulated and presented here in this book. It is going to benefit all, especially African churches where transformation is most needed at this time." --Dr. Pastor Bezalem Fisseha, former President and Board Chairman, Emmanuel United Church of Ethiopia "Dr. Art Lindsley presents us with a Judeo-Christian worldview that can help us to reflect on how our life of faith can intersect with our public life. His essays help us to consider the urgent need to apply these values at a global leadership level, for the creation of more just, ethical, and transformational societies. His thinking is relevant and provides guidance for a culture that has lost its moral compass for making correct, biblically based decisions. I highly recommend this booklet that blends both thoughtful academic content and biblical principles." --Ricardo Castillo Medina, President, FRAHMAD (Hispanic World Fraternity of the Assemblies of God) "Dr. Art Lindsley has often shared his insights with our leaders in Latin America. In this book, he affirms that transformation must be holistic. Profound change is not possible if it does not encompass every dimension of life. Dr. Lindsley shows us how to fulfill this challenge in a manner that is both profound and simple. This work provides us with valuable principles for every culture. Latin America celebrates this publication!" --Parrish Jacome Hernandez, General Director, UBLA (Baptist Union of Latin America) "Dr. Art Lindsley has gifted Latin America and the global South with a book that is a call to reflection and a call to action. To be transformational these two must work together. Leaders in every profession and sphere of cultural influence should devour this content....The principles presented in these pages are for all generations because it takes all generations to transform nations. If you are a person with a cause and a passion that is social, moral, and eternal, these values are foundational for your journey and destination." --Ricardo Luna, Executive Director, ConEl (Global Latin Evangelical Fellowship)

Transformation lays the groundwork for what church and Christian community can become in this new century. Author and pastor Bob Roberts Jr. is one of the architects of this unique approach to Christianity—based on biblical and missional discipleship—that he calls T-Life (transformed life), which leads to a T-World (transformed world). Ever since Jesus' commission to make disciples in his name, Christianity has transformed lives and the world at large. To those watching, it must have looked like an upstart religion led by a group of men, most of whom were martyred for their beliefs. The voice of secular culture today is no louder and no more indulgent than it was in those days. And yet much of the Western church has settled for becoming just another mass media market that's adding to the noise, instead of a movement that continues to turn the world upside down. Drawing inspiration from early church history and the emerging church in the developing world, Roberts envisions a new way of engaging the local church to achieve common goals. He calls for: Building a church culture rather than a church program. Empowering the local church to invest in the global missions field. Consistently reestablishing our relationship with Jesus Christ in order to experience true transformation. In fact, all this begins with a growing, interactive relationship with God that includes personal and corporate worship. This, in turn, results in community. As community serves others, transformation has both a global and local impact and creates transformation in the world. Transformation redefines the focus and practice of the church, not from external bells and whistles, but from the internal transformation of the very character of its people.

trans•for•ma•tion tran(t)s-f?r-’ma-sh?n NOUN A marked change, of something or someone, usually for the better. Nature provides an amazing example of a transformation. A butterfly’s life begins as an egg that becomes a larva. At its appointed time, a caterpillar breaks out and then begins to eat, and eat, and eat. Then the caterpillar spins a thread into a shell-like covering around its body. Inside this cocoon, the caterpillar changes into a pupa. The pupa grows into a beautiful, colorful, and graceful butterfly. People also go through transformations. From conception until death, we go through a series of changes. Once conceived, the life cycle stages begin and progress to produce a newborn baby. The baby grows and becomes a toddler, which then matures into an adolescent. Adulthood follows, and the process continues through mid-life through to old age. This experience is a natural transformation. There is also a spiritual transformation that we all should go through. This alteration involves changing on the inside and revealing it on the outside. You go through a conversion from living a worldly lifestyle to living a Christian life that is pleasing to God. You should desire and seek to achieve this spiritual makeover with all of your might. Many will confess to being a Christian, but are they really like Christ? You can’t just name it and claim it. You have to live it. To be a Christian means to be Christ-like. you must learn to live like Christ, to love like Christ, forgive like Christ, even bless like Christ, etc. Some may say that living a Christian life is easier said than done. Why is that so? I think mainly because we have inherently conformed to this world, and this world promotes pretty much everything except Christian living. Sadly, the vast majority of those who call themselves Christians in these last days are as far from Christ as they can possibly be. They think they are living for Jesus with all of their wickedness and false doctrines and evil lifestyles. I believe that people want this transformation but are not too willing to take the necessary steps to make this process change. This change isn’t always easy, but it is absolutely obtainable. You may ask, “What is required to live a Christian life?” The answer is in the Holy Bible. Transformation—Living a Christian Life can be summed up with one Bible verse: “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” (Rom. 12:2). Many have conformed to the ways of the world. They need a renewing of their mind. They need to get back in alignment with the will of God. This book’s purpose is to reunite you with God, His Word, and His will for your life, which is good and acceptable and perfect.
