This month on Worldview Matters, Dr. Josh Mulvihill returns to the HCS family for a powerful conversation with Dr. Roger Erdvig about why a biblical worldview is essential to our calling as educators. Together, they unpack how we can move beyond surface-level instruction to create deep, lasting spiritual impact through intentional discipleship and mentoring. They also discuss eye-opening statistics about the current state of biblical literacy in our homes and churches—and what we can do to respond. We believe this episode will both challenge and encourage you in the powerful work you are already doing.
