About this episode

Max Lyons discusses the importance of definitions and language in shaping worldview, inspired by his book on biblical roots of words.

Max Lyons joins us to discuss his book, The Student Worldview Dictionary, a project inspired by Noah Webster’s 1828 dictionary and designed to help children understand the original and biblical roots of words. In this episode, we discuss why definitions matter, how language shapes worldview, and why parents and educators must think carefully about the ideas children absorb every day.
