How is the word “infuse” related to biblical integration?
-
I believe that the word infuse is related to biblical integration because in our subjects we always have the opportunity to infuse biblical principles/ lessons in our lesson plans.
-
Biblical integration shouldn’t be a “what” or a “thing”, but instead a “who”. It should be who I am at all times, not just in the classroom.
-
Infuse implies something that cannot be separated, not like integration and self-segregation.

I agree with Dr. Black that ‘infuse’ is a better word than ‘integration.’ Integration can be different elements together in the same setting, e.g. races of people at the same function. Being infused is a solution of different elements blended together. or, as she tells, a human being where each cell has the DNA from parents and grandparents. For instruction, the Word of God should be infused into every aspect of the communication. Christ lives in us and that should be evident in our speech, our actions, and our presentation in the classroom. How we lead and guide our students cannot be separated from who we are and we are His. We want our students to know Him. Therefore, we need to intentionally include God’s truth as we teach and interact.
