This book investigates the concept of worldview, in its numerous
aspects, and how worldviews impact, shape, and influence
individuals, communities, societies, and cultures. It explores
various worldviews-religious, spiritual, and secular-using a
comprehensive approach to highlight their breadth, depth, and
scope. John Valk argues that everyone has a worldview, and that
worldview is often shaped and influenced by individual
circumstances and situations. While worldviews have similar
structures to one another, they vary in content, including
differences in metanarratives, teachings, ethics, and more. In the
course of explaining how worldviews respond to life's ultimate and
existential challenges, the book poses ontological questions to
highlight various (world)views on the nature of being and the
human, and epistemological questions pertaining to sources of
knowledge and certainty. Inviting readers to reflect on their own
worldviews as they explore the worldviews of others, Valk also
reveals how certain universal worldview beliefs are interpreted in
particular contexts.
