I definitely have room to improve my biblical integration in my lessons. As I was going through this course I was thinking about math and science. I was thinking about growth cycles of apples and pumpkins, etc.. How this items go through so many changes, what a great time to share how our God never changes. He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. Plus, God gave order for these things to grow. God created our world in order and for a specific purpose or job. Just like us.

We are required to biblically integrate every lesson plan we submit for every subject. Our team is looking to vary the biblical integration components from vague/repetitive to specific (ie: God is a God of Order for every math lesson, to researching specifically how God works through mulitplication, time, etc.)

I teach Bible so one of the projects my freshman course did this past year was to research another religion and compare and contrast it to Christianity. I then had the students (group project) come up with a plan to share the gospel with someone from that religion based on what they learned about the similarities and differences between that religion and Christianity.

In my biology course we cover the topic of eugenics. We draw a T chart up on the board and write secular view and biblical view and we come up with many ways people would look at eugenics from a secular view first and then we talk about verses that dispute those ideas. The students run this entire discussion and I just facilitate and guide. It usually ends up being a really thought provoking and lively discussion.

When we discuss genetic engineering I allow students to contemplate where they draw the line with regards to genetic modification. We then read different scriptures that pertain to God and His creation. The kids then are asked the same questions to contemplate where they now draw the line after reading what God’s word says.
