While technology makes us think the world is shrinking, the differences that define us are as great as ever. Like a chess game is governed by rules, so lives and cultures are governed by deeply held values -- whether or not we even recognize what they are. These values comprise what is called a worldview, and they dictate our beliefs and resulting behavior. Without an understanding of differing worldviews, we limit our ability to reach others with the gospel of Jesus Christ -- a complete worldview in itself.

In this thought-provoking book, Dr. David Burnett explains the elements of a worldview and helps us understand how and why we perceive the world around us as we do. He also examines several major worldviews, including those of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Islam, as well as the more contemporary views of the New Age and neo-paganism. Finally, he offers some basic principles in effectively evangelizing those with other worldviews.
