If you’re not intentionally teaching your kids a solid Christian worldview, someone else is shaping their beliefs for you.

In this can’t-miss replay from the Christian Parent / Crazy World vault, sits down with Elizabeth Urbanowicz—elementary educator, apologist, and founder of Foundation Worldview—to equip parents for the immense challenge of raising resilient, truth-loving kids in a culture determined to shape their values.

While many children in Christian homes learn Bible stories and attend church, a shocking disconnect remains: they often think more like the surrounding culture than like Christ.

Elizabeth shares her journey from the Christian classroom—where she saw even well-discipled kids absorbing secular ideas—to developing comprehensive curricula that anchor young minds in biblical truth.

A worldview, she explains, is a “mental map” that guides everything we think, say, and do. In this episode, she equips parents to make that map biblical—even for their youngest learners.

 

🔍 Highlights from the Episode:

📉 The Worldview Crisis
Elizabeth explains why even diligent discipleship and Christian education aren't enough without intentional worldview training.

Humorous and sobering stories show how easily relativism creeps in—even at age eight.

🧱 Practical Building Blocks
Don’t aim for a “giant leap to the roof.” Instead, build your child’s worldview step-by-step.

Elizabeth outlines key strategies to ground young believers in truth.

💡 Two Essentials for Raising Faithful Kids
Equip children to read, interpret, and apply Scripture independently.
Teach them to think critically and evaluate every idea they encounter.

These are vital skills in today’s age of information overload.
