Wait a sec! Is that a sign that says "Press Credentials" behind you? How do we know you two spoke at this thing? Or were you there as special correspondents for the Mt. Pleasant Sun Times and the Sioux Falls Record and Landmark?

J. Mark Bertrand

You have a devious mind, Mr. Cook. But do you honestly thing any reputable news organization, be it ever so humble, would issue credentials to the likes of us? The sad fact is, the photo was taken after the reverse of our sign had already been appropriated for other duties, and a kind lady allowed us to use the easel for a moment to take the photo.

I received your book as a graduation present from my grandmother in law. I did not touch it until 3 weeks ago; when I did so I devoured it. I could not put it down. Many insights that you had I assimilated and repackaged into my lesson plans for apologetics. Thank you for writing this book. I look forward to reading your blogs and rethinking worldview. On a side note I enjoy Worldview Academy's ads in World magazine and elsewhere.

J. Mark Bertrand

Thanks, Robbie! It's great to hear from you. I'm glad you were able to use the material so quickly in your own lesson plans, too.

Book Description

  • Everybody has a worldview, a perspective on life, and sometimes we're forced to re-think. The world can surprise and overwhelm us, and when that happens, it helps to know what's really important in life. Rethinking Worldview explores some essential questions from a Christian perspective, starting with what "worldviews" really are, how they are formed and how they change. It's a chronicle of one man's intellectual journey, written to encourage fellow travelers along the way.
