Tina Griffin of The Counter Culture Mom Show (https://counterculturemom.com/) interviews David Richardson of Assumptions Institute and LearnToDiscern.com. Very few children who are raised in a Christian home or in the Christian church remain in the faith after they graduate from high school. Why? Because so many Christians can’t recognize the truth when they see it! David Richardson is the president of the Assumptions Institute and the creator of Learn to Discern, a discernment training ministry. He discusses why teaching discernment as a discipline is so critical and key to preparing our children for not only recognizing a lie but for recognizing objective truth. You don’t need an advanced degree to train yourself to exercise good biblical discernment. David shares key information about the relativistic age we are in and how to combat it with common sense God-centered knowledge.

A person’s core assumption is what they believe is really real. Every person affirms one of several core assumptions about reality. That core assumption is the autopilot in our brain. It is the thing that we do not question. If we do, it gives our brain the blue screen of death. We can’t make sense of anything. A core assumption is also the thing we cannot prove. Our core assumption is likewise the thing that we accept to be real on faith. How else can we make an assumption? We don’t know it. We trust it. This makes every person a person of faith, even atheists because we all operate from a basic core assumption about what is real. It is that assumption that controls everything we say, do, and think.

Your tax deductible donation can help us change a troubling trend. https://assumptions.givevirtuous.com By the year 2050, 35 million students who grew up in Christian homes and churches will leave their faith. Those who identify with no religion will grow from 17% today to 30% of Americans. There seems to be little that Christians are doing today that is effective to reverse this trend. We have a unique, tested strategy that we believe will make a big difference!

Assumptions Institute teaches real-world discernment skills so people may know Jesus Christ, reflect their relationship with Him in all of life, and avoid being manipulated by the false cultural messages they encounter daily.

This is one helpful way I have found to talk with people about who Jesus is.

Our culture has redefined what "good" is, so what is "moral" is also redefined. Dave Richardson reveals the hidden assumptions behind progressive morality which results in "cancel culture." Dave also offers strategies to help Christians more effectively engage with today's changing moral landscape.

What assumptions drive people's attitudes and beliefs in today's moral issues? Are these assumptions true?

Why do progressives think the way they do and act the way they do? There are certain assumptions about reality and human nature that make progressive thinking possible. Whether acted on by liberal or conservative ideologues, these assumptions are universally dangerous.

A spontaneous question and answer session giving people a place to express their private doubts and ask their dangerous questions about God, the Bible, philosophy, history, science, culture.

David Richardson uses the power of assumptions to reveal in plain language the biggest cultural challenge that Christian leaders face today. This talk is based on his critically acclaimed and ground-breaking book "Transparent: How to See Through the Powerful Assumptions That Control You" (https://www.TheTransparentBook.com). David is the Founder and President of Assumptions Institute, an educational nonprofit dedicated to helping people and organizations find God and engage with Him in their public lives. He has consulted in academia and business for 30 years. David holds three degrees, including a post-graduate degree from the University of Oxford. He is available for speaking, teaching, and consulting (https://www.daverichardson.org/contact).
