We live in a culture where the spiritual and the academic are often fractured, and even in Christian schools, we can struggle to figure out how to integrate a Biblical worldview with our subject matter. Dr. Roger Erdvig, and Dr. Maggie Pope join Linda to share about their new project for Summit Ministries, a set of Biblical Worldview Standards that will help teachers, administrators, and school staff develop students deeply immersed in a biblical worldview. These practical standards will equip teachers in Christian schools to help students be better prepared for a lifetime of loving and serving Christ.
