Center for Biblical Integration
The Center for Biblical Integration (CBI) exists to serve and support administration, faculty, and students in the pursuit of understanding the world through God’s Word. Biblical Worldview Integration (BWI) is a central commitment in Liberty University’s ethos, impacting both academic and non-academic capacities.
BWI can be simply defined as “biblical principles permeate everything.” Christian thinkers don’t put God into their subjects – He is already there. The Trinitarian Godhead has created all things and holds all things together (Colossians 1:15-20).

Teaching Support
CBI supports both residential and online faculty with the tools and resources needed to effectively integrate biblical principles into their instruction – like our Christian Professors Project videos. The Center assists with infusing God’s Word into lectures, course announcements, assignment feedback, and presentations. Its goal is to foster student engagement, promote clear communication, and support Christ-centered teaching that nurtures both spiritual and academic growth.
Course Design
CBI assists faculty in areas of course design to develop clear, biblically grounded course goals, create meaningful assignments that foster critical thinking through a Christian perspective, and implement assessments that seamlessly integrate Scripture with scholarship.

All new residential and online faculty receive training in BWI to ensure that courses are taught through the lens of Scripture. Offered live in-person and online, these trainings offer instructional strategies, address institutional expectations, and provide resources to promote a Christ-centered learning environment.

The Christian Professors Project
Liberty’s Center for Biblical Integration (CBI) partnered with the International Alliance for Christian Education (IACE) and the Colson Center on the Christian Professors Project. This project examines the integration of Christian faith across different areas of study in higher education.
How does your Christian faith interpret your discipline? In what ways does it impact your methodologies and approaches? The Christian Professors Project has created the following resources to help you answer these questions. The video series provides specific, immediately applicable ideas of how you can think and teach distinctively in the realm of higher education as Christians.
Video Series
Below you will find our collection of instructional and inspiring videos. The Christian Professors Project series is available for free to Liberty professors and faculty as well as any interested Christian educator and institution across the world.
