Definition

Worldview

A worldview refers to the underlying set of beliefs, values, and assumptions through which individuals interpret the world around them. In a missions context, it is crucial for missionaries to understand the local worldview of the people they are reaching in order to effectively communicate the Gospel in a way that resonates with their cultural perspectives, while remaining faithful to biblical truth. This process often involves identifying and addressing differences between the local worldview and a biblical worldview.
