An interview with:
Dr. Chris Hobbs
Head of Indian Rocks Christian School
Colson Fellow (2024)
Building a Worldview-Strong Campus
By: Billy Hutchinson, Director of Colson Educators
After completing the Colson Fellows Program in 2024, Dr. Chris Hobbs wanted to bring the same kind of deep worldview formation to his faculty and staff.
The worldview formation of teachers matters because of the unprecedented challenges facing students today. According to Dr. Hobbs,
Students are facing unique challenges related to massive shifts in society. ... They’re being raised in a world that we were not raised in. It’s not something to be fearful of—God ordained for us to be here at this time to extend His Kingdom and help shape the culture accordingly. But if you don’t think about it carefully and critically, it is very disorienting to help walk kids through a life and an experience that many of us didn’t have.
Our teachers need to be formed to understand what’s deep down under the surface— the difference between reacting to what we’re seeing in culture versus proactively shaping culture—and that requires enormous critical thinking.”
As Head of School, Dr. Hobbs feels an intense responsibility—like many Christian school leaders today—to make sure his faculty have a solid Christian worldview:
In unclear times, clarity is incredibly valuable. For Christian schools to continue to thrive in this cultural moment, they must get clearer on the most important things. And I think the most important thing is, “How are we forming the biblical worldview of the students in our hallways?” Colson Educators is a really effective way to answer that question.”
Last year, Dr. Hobbs invited Billy Hutchinson, Director of Colson Educators, to do a staff training workshop at Indian Rocks Christian School. This year, over 60 of the Indian Rocks staff have made use of Colson Educators materials, and six are participating in the Colson Fellows Program. Moreover, Dr. Hobbs is exploring the option of launching an Academic Affiliate Program at his school, so his staff can continue to invest in transformational worldview training as a team—right on campus.
As Dr. Hobbs told us, “Colson Educators has cleared the way so that Christian educators can walk the path of forming biblical worldview on their campuses as efficiently as it can be done.”
Because of your generosity, leaders like Dr. Hobbs are equipping teachers to form students with clarity, confidence, and courage in today’s culture. Thank you for helping make this kind of transformational worldview training possible in schools across the country.
