The Integration of Faith and Learning: A Basic Bibliography

Preface

The integration of faith and learning is the distinctive characteristic of Christian higher education. Education at a Christian university involves more than the delivery of content in the classroom in an effective way. It also involves helping students learn to see the world through the lenses of a Christian worldview. Other distinctives include providing competencies in one’s chosen field of study and helping to shape character for life and vocation.

At Union University we are committed to loving God with our minds, the essence of what it means to be a Great Commandment university. Thus we want faculty, staff, and students to think Christianly. This commitment involves integrating faith and knowledge in all disciplines.

This bibliographical tool has been compiled to help accomplish these goals. It is our hope that you will find it helpful as you seek to think holistically about various subjects from a Christian perspective.

Not every book in the bibliography is written from a faith perspective. Yet, even those books help us understand the issues and challenges facing us as we move into what many are calling a post Christian cultural context.

Many faculty and staff members from across the University assisted in this project. To each one we offer our gratitude. Our prayer is that God will use this little booklet for good in the lives of many and that it will bring glory to Him.
