J H Bavinck
Modern evangelicals differ on their concept of worldview. Many have varying definitions of it and some even consider it to be a wholly unhelpful term in understanding the world around them. This volume by Johan Herman Bavinck examines the relationship between the soul, each humans unique personality, and worldviewacknowledging the importance of worldview while recognizing the dangers if worldviews are misapplied.
Personality and Worldviewby J. H. Bavinck, nephew and student of Dutch Reformed theologian Herman Bavinck, creates a distinction between aworldvision(which all people have) and aworldview(which only few have in a mature and wise way). Profoundly influenced by the works of St. Augustine, Bavinck challenges readers to allow the gospel to reshape their worldviews and their personalities as they pursue godly wisdom. Translated into English for the first time by James Eglinton, Bavincks accessible prose, personal applications, and more will greatly serve pastors, students, and laypeople alike.
