Countering Culture equips Christians to take a reasoned stand for biblical principles in the classroom as well as in the boardroom. The follow up to the popular youth study "Thinking Like a Christian", and the second in the Worldviews in Focus series, "Countering Culture introduces learners to the worldviews and ideas that are shaping our culture while providing understanding as to why our society is moving in the direction it is headed. Focusing on the ideas of secular humanism, neo-Marxism, and the new age, participants in this twelve-week study will discover how biblical Christianity shines bright as the only solution to the troubling trends seen in our culture. This study will not only prepare your student for the college and university campus, but will work to present a biblical worldview for everyday living. The Teaching Textbook contains a CD that houses all of the materials needed for each lesson while offering four different teaching tracks: homeschool, youth group or classroom, college, and adult studies. Busy teachers will love the scripted lessons, activity sheets, lesson helps, and more.
