Learning Science in aChristian ContextWhat does it mean that Concordia is a Christian school and howdoes that affect us in this class?1. We know that science is not the most important thing in the world.2. We are in a Christian learning community and trust each other as brothers andsisters in Christ.3. We acknowledge scholarship as an important activity for Christians to pursue.• “For a Christian, the mind is important because God is important.” -MarkA. Knoll4. We enjoy and appreciate learning about the natural world because we know whocreated it. We marvel at the scientific order and complexity of the universe andseek knowledge with a worshipful attitude.5. We recognize that God has called us to our current vocation. At this point in ourlives, we have not only chosen to be a student- we have answered God’s call forus to accomplish his work on earth as a student.6. “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.”1 Cor. 10:31
