How does your biblical worldview currently influence your role as a Christian educator?
-
My biblical worldview shapes every decision and action and therefore must be grounded in Truth. In the school setting I have the opportunity to influence students for the good with God’s truth. I can live out my faith to reinforce the biblical worldview. Lastly, I can give opportunities for students to practice living out a biblical worldview.
-
My biblical worldview influences how I view myself and others, as well as how I interpret the world and its belief system(s). It affects how I interact with students, colleagues, and others. My biblical worldview will affect how I answer students’ questions, how I treat a struggling student, and any other challenge I face inside or outside of the classroom. Christian educators are responsible to be an example of Christ wherever they are- inside or outside of the classroom-and their biblical worldview (or lens) will influence and affect everything they do.

My biblical worldview influences the way that I teach. I am constantly pointing students to God’s design and order in Math and Science courses. He is the author of the order we study!
-
I believe that the Bible is God’s revelation that is authorized by Jesus. I see the world through the eyes of scriptures instead of current philosophies and worldviews. On one hand, I try to align with the scriptures. On the other hand, my view of scriptures can be tainted by the world around me. Because of these truths, I try to build in the hearts of my students a desire to seek truth in all of God’s truth, but most specifically in the Bible.

My biblical worldview influences my approach to every aspect of my life. As a Christian educator I think it is important to show that my biblical worldview is not something that is just said in the classroom but is lived out in my interactions with co-workers, students, and families.
