Introduction When I began teaching in Christian schools, my course of study was “Bible.” But over the passage of my instructional years, I renamed the course CLAWS or “Christian Life and World Studies.” As I would say to my students, “The Bible does not sit on a shelf by itself but applies to the whole
My one word definition of education: Ownership. This past week one of my classes and I were reviewing the year. I wanted to know their comments about the learning process. It was a great discussion lasting an hour and a half. “As much as it pains me to admit it,” one young man began his comment, “You
“Environmental” Science[1] “Earthkeeping” (instead of “environmentalism”) or “re-Genesizing,” taking care of creation, is hurt by human sin (Lev 26; Deut 11:13-17). Deuteronomy 33:13-15 shows a fertile versus infertile land Deuteronomy 29:16-28. There are creational consequences that humans bring on ourselves. Environmental concerns are nothing new. The Israelites entered a land “flowing with milk and
Why Do We Have to Learn This?! THE question every student asks. Here are my answers. And here is where you can find the STORY that got me to answer the question! Stewardship of resources—we are responsible to protect and produce from what we have been given in life—is humanity’s first command (Gen 1:28). Ultimately,
BIBLICAL PRINCIPLES FOR JOURNALISM First Testament teaching is quite clear: honesty and transparency in reportage is essential. No group, no elites, no persons in power, no newsroom should control what a populace hears. “ALL THINGS CONSIDERED” Deut 19:15-18; Prov 18:17 Every side of an issue should be fairly represented. Objectivity and accuracy is paramount.
God’s gift of music expresses life. Biblical Basis: 1 Chronicles 15,16 Psalm 47:7 “For God is the King of all the earth; sing to him a psalm of praise” Psalm 119:54 “Your decrees are the theme of my song” Isaiah 55:12 “You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains
Singing changes our thinking. TIME reports (here) that singing lowers stress, sidelines depression, and boosts joy. Singing Christmas carols in the streets and hymns at church celebrations inspire Christians. Three major statements about music are established in 1 Chronicles 15, 16: (1) Songs were responsive (15:16, 25, 28). Music is a human response to God’s world, His
All Things Learning EVERYTHING from a Christian perspective. Sometime early in the 1990’s I did a simple concordance study of “all things” or “everything” in Scripture. I’ve listed here the basic results. I have used the list in one venue or another ever since. I’ve included it here under “faith-learning integration” as the basis for how
Math incorporates at least 15 creational concepts from Genesis 1:1-2:3 Worth: the existence of time, space, and matter indicates value (1:1) Skill: finesse and craftsmanship describe “God’s work” (2:2) Beauty: “and He saw that it was beautiful” (1:10, 12, 18, 21, 25) Form: “light…darkness…water…sky” (1:3-2:3) structure, mode, orderly arrangement of the parts of a whole
Faith-Learning Integration: Ten Biblical Science Principles The Foundation and Permeation of Biblical Truth with the Creation The Source of Authority. Where do we get the information that we need? Is it reliable, authentic, and authoritative? How is the information interpreted? If God has revealed Himself in His world, then He can be known (Psalm 19:1-11;
Interest kills. Creditors bear responsibility. Borrowers need discernment. Biblical directives are necessary in a world where indebtedness to build school buildings is common. The primary injunctions concerning indebtedness are directed toward the creditors—those who have the financial ability to abuse others by lending at interest (Ex 22:25-27; Lev 25:35-38; Deut 23:19, 20). Judgments against the
“What’s missing?” “What am I *not* hearing?” These are the first questions I ask myself whenever I hear the news, watch a movie, take a class, or enter a Zoom meeting. Why does silence dominate one agenda, noise, another? As a professor, I press students to hear another voice other than the one constantly in
