How do your answers to “the big questions of life” discussed in this lesson influence you in your role as an educator?
-
If we are grounded in our purpose and sense of “self” we can then direct students toward their God given purposes.
-
We can’t transmit what we don’t ourselves possess. How often the Apostle Paul would say, “I received of the Lord, that which I delivered unto you.” It’s critical as an educator that I’m clear on my worldview and philosophy.
If I model to my students that the meaning of life is to live a life pleasing to God, and to give him glory in all that I do and say, it becomes easier for them to emulate.
-
My foundation of faith must be solid, and my understanding of how to answer the “big questions of life” must truly affect and influence my role as an educator.
-
It is extremely important for us as educators to be secure in who we are and that our identity is found in Christ.
-
Knowing who made me, why I was made, and what my life is moving towards ground me in my approach as an educator and give me an overall sense of purpose. I know why i’m alive, I know who I am, and I know where I’m going, which motivate me to teach my students these truths about themselves.
