It is the Christian worldview. This is not an abstract philosophy so much as biblical doctrine for life.

The singular claim of these various essays, which originated in the annual conference of the Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary, is that Christianity entails a distinctive worldview. This worldview is the source of true beauty (there is such a thing!) and, when grasped and lived out, brings great glory to our triune God. A timely set of practical and helpful reflections.” \u003cbr\u003e—Michael A. G.

However precisely that question is answered, the papers given at the 2016 PRTS Conference will undoubtedly provide the substance of a biblically faithful answer. The Beauty and Glory of the Christian Worldview begins by rooting our thinking in the theological and practical riches of the Holy Trinity, and ends by directing our thinking to the promised coming of Christ and the eternal glory that is the blood bought possession of all God’s people. PRTS is to be thanked for providing for the church a book that will help Christians engage less apprehensively and more confidently with the thinking of this fallen, anti-Christ world.” \u003cbr\u003e—Ian Hamilton is the author of\u003cem\u003e The Faith-Shaped Life\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eContents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreface\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFoundational Truths for the Christian’s Mind \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.
