dc.description.abstractIn today's world, many people have adopted the post-modernist worldview without realizing it. Researchers have found that few Christian individuals/universities adequately address integration of faith and learning in their operations. On one hand, the reason for the lack of integration is related to the much discussed theories and failure to address the practicable application of it. On the other hand, lack of paying attention on the basic foundations of integrating faith and learning in life. Therefore, the main purpose of this paper was to investigate the role of religion in Christian Universities and cast a vision on reality of the future being faced in the area of faith and learning in Christian universities. This paper sought to answer the following questions: How is integration of accounting profession applied by the Christian universities? What is the role of Christian Educators in integration of faith and learning in Christian Universities? The study used a survey to collect primary data as well as personal experience backed up with some secondary information from other Christian universities. The findings showed mixed results when a comparative was performed with majority of the respondents (79.3%) from South Korea and (50.2%) in Kenya disagreeing to religion not influencing accountants when applying accounting standards. However, majority of the respondents in South Korea were atheists (58.8%), while in Kenya (98.5%) of the respondents indicated were Christians. Nonetheless, the challenges faced in application of accounting standards were significantly different between South Korea and Kenya because of difference in religion and continuous revisions of the accounting standards. This paper shall be used to spur Christian universities to integrate faith in various disciplines and encourage Christian values in a world that has denied Godhead in schools/and universities.
