Biblical Integration of Math
We live in an orderly world. Man has devised a systematic way of studying this orderliness in a study known as mathematics. Mathematics encompasses the spheres of nearly every aspect of life, architecture, agriculture, religion, astronomy, commerce, music, art, transportation, etc. Mathematics is a study dealing with numbers and their operations, measurement, space configurations, and relationships of quantities, as expressed numbers or symbols. Through the appropriate biblical integration of math, students should see not only the character and nature of creation, but of God himself.
