Math, Bible (1978)

“God wrote the universe in the language of mathematics.” This quote is one that my students are very familiar with because it is displayed on the wall of my classroom. Mathematics is the means by which we are able to understand to some limited degree the order and beauty of God’s created universe. God is a god of order and we see that everywhere we look in the natural world.

Bible 12 takes a look at various worldviews with the goal of demonstrating the truth of Christianity. I want to challenge non-Christians to consider the claims of Jesus. I want Christians to understand what they believe, why they believe it, and how to give an adequate defense for what they believe. I desire each student to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, to grow in that relationship, and to bring each area of his or her life under the Lordship of Christ.
