H. Bavinck, Translated into English for the First Time\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eModern 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 human's unique personality, and worldview--acknowledging the importance of worldview while recognizing the dangers if worldviews are misapplied. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cem\u003ePersonality and Worldview\u003c\/em\u003e by J. H. Bavinck, nephew and student of Dutch Reformed theologian Herman Bavinck, creates a distinction between a \u003cem\u003eworldvision\u003c\/em\u003e (which all people have) and a \u003cem\u003eworldview\u003c\/em\u003e (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, Bavinck's accessible prose, personal applications, and more will greatly serve pastors, students, and laypeople alike. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eForeword by Timothy Keller: \u003c\/strong\u003e Keller writes, \"I could not be happier that Johan Herman Bavinck's \u003cem\u003ePersonality and Worldview\u003c\/em\u003e has been made accessible to the English-speaking world.
