Spiritual integration is the reuniting of these functions.  Consider the fact that theology is the science of faith.  It is human effort, hopefully inspired, to interpret and encapsulate an inspired record.  Science is a descendant of faith and should stay close to its parent. When science, expressed as medicine and technology, becomes separated from faith, then a variety of dysfunctions arise.  For example, psychological disorders and behavioral malfunctions are not diagnosed or treated properly in the faith community.  Confessions alone seek to correct what behavior has caused.  Chemical imbalances are inappropriately managed by spiritual deliverance.  

There is a plea amongst many Christians for an integrated approach to wholeness and health.  Perhaps, the prescription involves the preacher, physician, technologist, and the scientist.  The body is fitly joined together and each part contributes to the health of the whole (1 Cor. 12:14-25). Similarly, unity of all aspects of God’s creations, including thought and faith, is essential to our approach to spiritual and natural wellness.
