Postmodernism presents a challenge to the Christian view of epistemology. What are some practical ways you, as a Christian educator, can respond to this challenge?
-
I can point students to the Word as their main source of understanding what God has created and what He has for us.
-
We can be knowledgeable of the Bible and what we believe.
-
I think that one of the practical ways to meet this challenge is to always point the student back to the Bible and the truth of its word. We are given truth and the ability to know many things about our Creator.
-
One of the most practical ways that I can respond to this challenge is by telling my students that there are things that we know are true, but then, we cannot rely in our human senses and feelings to reveal every truth. That’s when faith and confidence in God plays a crucial role. We are His creation, learning about the world around us. We don’t own the truth, God does.

Epistemology is “knowing”. We can share what we know about God with our students.
