What does Dr. Teague mean when he says, “Integration was never the legitimate starting point for a godly pedagogy”?

We can not start with integration, we must start with knowledge and love of God’s Word.

Instructors can not integrate something they do not know well. First and foremost, Christian educators need to know God’s Word well prior to attempting to integrate it into lessons.

Instructors can’t build Biblical integration without starting with a clear and deep knowledge of the Bible

I believe Dr. Teague is talking about how we must first have the Bible as our foundation. We must first have a strong knowledge of the Word before we can integrate it into anything.
