Description: Integrating faith and learning in the classroom is important.  Doing it effectively is difficult.  Relevance in the classroom (Keller, 1983), and its positive correlation with learning (Newby, 1991), are well documented.  The same is true for immediacy (Chesebro and McCroskey, 2002).  Perhaps by revisiting relevance and immediacy, we could improve our integration efforts and see an increased affect by our students toward the importance of faith as it relates to the subject matter and their lives.
