Intro to Biblical Integration - Online Course

This course is an essential element of our recommended learning plans for educators and school leaders in Christian schools around the world.

Course Description

This course explores the nature and importance of biblical integration, and introduces simple, practical strategies for classroom implementation.  Participants will develop their understanding of biblical integration through interaction with each other and preparing a biblically integrated lesson plan or unit that is relevant to the grade and subject level they teach.

Course Purpose

“Biblical integration” can be a confusing topic for teachers. However, it is a core feature of education that is distinctively Christian. Integrating subject content and teaching methods with a biblical worldview is a dynamic process, so there is no “step-by-step” formula to apply. Teachers with an understanding of the purpose and process of biblical integration will be in a position to think creatively about how to implement this in the context of their own classroom. This short course is not intended to turn teachers into experts, but provide a simple way forward for teachers who wish to strengthen their understanding and practice.

The Crisis of the Modern Self

How can we as Christian school leaders address the decaying sense of identity in our students and, even sometimes, in our faculty? Is there any help from God's Word to anchor our identity to something real instead of the culture and its fractured view of human identity?

A Stronger Future for Christian Education

Christian education in Europe faces growing challenges as societal norms shift and regulatory frameworks become increasingly complex. To navigate these challenges effectively, collaboration among schools, parents, school associations, and international organizations is crucial.
