Summit Biblical Worldview Immersion Conference
February 14, 2025
Hosted by Mr. David Kilgore and Calvary Christian High School
110 N. McMullen Booth Road Clearwater, FL 33759
Based on Dr. Roger Erdvig’s popular book, Beyond Biblical Integration, the experience at the Summit Conference is different from a traditional educator’s conference. While we understand that teachers and leaders enjoy hearing dynamic speakers who have worthwhile principles to share in compelling and unique ways, Summit focuses on a more holistic learning experience for participants.
Lectures and speaker-centered instruction are appropriately wed to learner-centered engagement – a demonstration of the core of Biblical worldview immersive learning. This gives participants significant time and space to reflect on their worldview formation and teaching practices. It is also consistent with the central thesis of Beyond Biblical Integration: to effectively nurture a Biblical worldview in our students, we need to align our teaching philosophy and pedagogy with a Biblical worldview. Our goal is to provide a Biblical worldview-immersive experience for conference participants so they can taste and see first-hand what they can do in their classroom.
Bring your entire team to spend a day with Dr. Roger Erdvig, Director of Summit’s Center for Biblical Worldview Formation; Dr. Maggie Pope, Summit Worldview Trainer & Coach; and other worldview education experts.
