Welcome,
The way that Christians look at history and approach life stems from their worldview. When students study history from the foundation and framework of the Bible, these students can rightly judge the decisions and actions they are analyzing. These studies then help students apply the lessons learned in the study to their own lives. The following are some of the worldview questions that every aspect of historical study should address:

- How do Christians decide on matters of right and wrong?
- What is the basic moral nature of human beings?
- What makes human beings unique?
- How did the world and all that is in it come into being?
- What is reality in terms of knowledge and truth?
- How does and should the world function?
- What does it mean to be a human being?
- What is one's reason for existence?
- How should one live?
- Is there any hope for the future?
- Why is it possible to know anything at all?
- What is the meaning of human history?
