Divine Paradigm

Divine Paradigm highlights the difference a worldview makes when facing life's daily challenges.


Part One defines what a worldview is, explains how a worldview provides a paradigm for all of life, and describes current worldviews vying for our embrace and allegiance.


Part Two addresses specific topics that are in crisis in our current culture and that confront each of us daily. Each of the 19 topical chapters follows a pattern of identifying and describing the topic, and then presenting a biblical paradigm as a solution or, at the least, a consideration for the topic. Topics range from...


vocations to making important decisions,

education to dating,

morality to marriage,

parenting to dealing with illness and grief, and more.



An interesting read. I enjoyed reviewing and working on it. Divine Paradigm is erudite in its content and style, yet accessible enough to appeal to a wide audience. The author demonstrates authority in the subject while remaining humble in tone, allowing him to connect with the reader in applying these biblical truths. At first glance, it's a powerful book that successfully combines biblical wisdom with life experience in a cohesive, convincing whole. Well done. -David, professional editor


This book is intended for personal growth and is practical for small group use.

William Bartlett has served as a parish pastor for 29 years and as the founding executive director of Crean Lutheran High School, Irvine, CA, for nine years. The common denominator of Pastor Bartlett's ministry in both congregation and school has been a love for Jesus Christ and the Bible - both of which reveal God's gift of salvation and His paradigm for life.
