Truth Project Sets Out to Equip Believers With Biblical Worldview Training

(AgapePress) - - Equipping Christians with a biblical worldview -- that's the goal of a series of two-day conferences being sponsored by Focus on the Family. The events will be held nationwide and will feature speakers who seek to train and educate participants about the importance of living lives consistent with the Bible's teachings.

According to a recent Barna poll, only four percent of Americans have a biblical worldview. That is one reason, according to one Focus on the Family spokesman, that the Colorado-based Christian pro-family ministry is holding this latest conference series, dubbed "The Truth Project."

Mar Fey, community impact director for Focus on the Family, says the goal of the Truth Project is to establish and broaden the Christian worldview of the trainees. "What it helps Christians do," he explains, "is integrate their faith into every area of life and to integrate the truth in the Bible into every area of life."

Fey says the people behind the conference series are hoping to combat an unfortunate trend in the lives of believers. "What we've seen arise in the last 15 or 20 years in particular," he explains, "is a separation between the secular and the sacred," he notes.

The way this plays out for many Christians, the Focus on the Family official notes, is that these people will have one part of their faith "over here in church," but will live the rest of their life "over here" in a predominantly separate and secular realm. The Truth Project's objective, Fey says, is to aid Christians throughout the United States in "bringing those two worlds together to understand that faith really applies to all of life."

During the two-day conference, presenters will provide attendees with comprehensive biblical worldview training. Ideally, when the training is completed, conference participants will be equipped to bring the information back to their communities and lead their own small-group Truth Project trainings.

The inaugural Truth Project conference takes place this weekend in Charlotte, North Carolina. Focus on the Family is bringing the conference series to a number of locations nationwide throughout 2006 and beyond. Locations scheduled so far include Rockford, Illinois; Colorado Springs, Colorado; Seattle, Washington; Boston, Massachusetts; Atlanta, Georgia; and Washington, D.C.
