Instructions for writing Christian Worldview: Christian Worldview must be included in every paper submitted for this class (CWV) will include a Bible verse, but a verse from scripture alone, is not a CWV. You need to explain to your reader the context of the verse you quote, how you understand the verse, and then explain how to apply that verse in a practical way to the issue or subject matter of the paper. Following are two good examples of Christian worldview:
