Include a theme partial and pass data to it.

theme_include.php

 *  @param   string  $partial  Partial file to include
 *  @param   array   $data     Data to pass to the partial

    if ( ! strstr( $partial, '.php' ) ) {
        $partial .= '.php';
    }

    if ( ! ( $template = locate_template( $partial ) ) ) {
        throw new Exception("The partial you requested (${partial}) could not be found");
    }

    include( $template );
}
