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?

If we can continually point them to the Word and to Christ, then they have a guide to help them through the challenging questions and life events they will face. I think we can also always lead them to the power of prayer and asking God for guidance and wisdom.

Christians love Christ, and as we are drawn ever closer to Him through our lives, we grow in the confidence He gives us about Truth, which includes the knowlege and understanding about how and what we know. This spills over and touches those we come on contact with because His inner confidence enables us to do all things through Him, which attracts our students to Him through our example.

By always making sure they understand the knowledge comes from applying themselves in the right path. We follow the bible and that is our path in life. We have been created by a purpose, therefore we don’t follow our will but His, not our feelings, but rely on our faith.

I respond by emulating Christian philosophy at work. Throughout the week, reading many Bible stories that challenge their thinking and discussing the Christian worldview makes students more resilient to secular worldviews.
-
Telling students that they are made by God and he made them that way for a reason, and we can trust him that in his time he will reveal that reason. I tell students that knowledge comes with age and experience, that we are not born with it, that God has given us a brain to learn and discover his truths.
