How do your answers to “the big questions of life” discussed in this lesson influence you in your role as an educator?

When we know the answers to these questions, we have confidence to proceed according to God’s will. Knowing first and foremost, that I am a creation of God, that I was intentionally created by His design, and that my purpose is to serve him (and hopefully win others to Christ), propels me to share these truths with others so that they can come to a knowledge of those truths in their own lives. The answers to “life’s big questions” encourages me all the more to do my part to fulfill God’s will for my life, and I pray He will use me as an instrument to share His love with others. What better opportunity than for those believers who are blessed with a classroom full of eager, young hearts?!

I enjoyed how the entire lecture was summed up with her description of visiting schools where Christ was the center philosophy. Even low socioeconomic status and race are overcome when the school places their anchor with Christian beliefs.

My calling in life as an educator is to glorify God. She spoke a lot about John’s writings that answers “the big questions of life.” In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God, For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have eternal life, and He is the Alpha and Omega-the beginning and the end. This anchors us, this influences how we behave and this is the calling on my life. I need to be very careful to share this with my students.

Each individual person created in the image of God is designed with a purpose. As we are born in the flesh as babies, raised in our own unique situations. We are surrounded by different people and environments all over the globe, but there is one unifying feature. We are created in the image of God for his purposes. So as we mature, there are questions pulling at each of us, these are “the big questions of life” that each person searches for regardless of their upbringing. Each of us will be able to find various answers to these questions. However, as a Christian, there is only one truth, and only One Way, through the shed Blood of Jesus Christ. Knowing the answers to these “big questions” profoundly influence my role as an educator.
“The big questions of life”, who am I, what is the meaning of life, what is real, where did I come from? Knowing the answers to these type of questions gives a purpose and direction for the believers lives. Knowing the answers to these type of questions give a purpose and directions for the Christian Educators ministry in the classroom. Knowing that I was masterfully and purposefully created lets me know that my life has value. Knowing that God’s word is absolute Truth and that Jesus Christ Died so that I could have eternal life if I accept His free gift of salvation, gives me direction and grounds me in my daily life and role as an educator. Knowing that I am a child of the Most High God gives me a desire to strive for better in every interaction and every lesson taught. My God did not die on the cross so that I could live a mediocre life. He died so that I could life an abundantly full life, sharing the good news of the Gospel with everyone, using my talents and abilities for His Glory. The “big answers” to the “big questions” cause a big difference in my role as an educator.

The big question of life are my purpose as an educator. As the Bible says, Without Him, nothing was made that was made. God is the center of everything. I try to God in the middle of my lessons because without Him, there wouldn’t be music. Music is to glorify Him. Music doesn’t have to be beautiful. God just wants us to make a joyfully noise to honor Him. In everything we do, we should do it as if we are doing it for Him. In truth, we are as we are made to worship Him.
