Review of ‘A Student’s Guide to Worldview’ by Sharon James

Christian Focus Publishing 2022

Sharon James has given us a pithy, well-written book comparing the Christian world view with others. We could all read it with profit, but it is essentially written for students. Not all will agree with her stand on some topics, but there is much to engage, inform and prepare students for the challenges which face them.

 

Sophie, a 16-year-old school student has made the following points,

 “I liked reading this book and found it very helpful. Christian young people could really benefit from it. Here is my list of positive comments:

  •  It sets up the basics before going into the depth and explanation of worldview which I feel is really helpful.

  • The explanations are written in a really easy to understand manner.

  • The topics brought up in the book are very current and relatable.

  • It uses lots of good Bible passages and excerpts to explain the points.

  • I like the summaries and reflection questions at the end of each chapter.

  • It also explains the different applications of the Bible passages in modern circumstances.

  • I like the real-life stories embedded into the book that help set up what each chapter is about.

  • It describes both Christian and non-Christian worldviews in a really helpful way for the modern society we live in.

I would recommend that both younger and older people would really benefit from reading this book”.
