Biblical integration often asks what faith can add to a subject, which leads to shallow connections and leaves many disciplines with little to say beyond a few familiar themes. A better approach asks what each subject can do for personal formation. By drawing on the full range of Christian traditions and asking how each subject forms students, education becomes a unified practice of discipleship rather than a fragmented set of religious habits.
