How does your biblical worldview currently influence your role as a Christian educator?

I teach in a secular setting. My biblical worldview influences my relationship and interactions with students and colleagues both in and outside of the classroom: what I talk about and how; the types of resources that I present or use; how I interact in challenging situations. I am actively seeking God’s will in the current setting that He has placed me in.

My biblical worldview encompasses every area I teach in my classroom and in life! I use God’s Word as my foundation for why I do what I do each day.

My biblical worldview influences my role as a Christian educator, because I make an effort to integrate scripture and Biblical perspectives into each lesson. Especially, as a science teacher I am able to find ways relating a biblical worldview into our studies involving Geology, Chemistry and Biology.

My current biblical worldview is influencing my role as an educator because I make sure to stay in the word, memorize the bible verses that I’m expecting my students to memorize, and just knowing God’s story is our history. It teaches us how to live life.

We can apply aspects of a biblical worldview to how we teach our subjects and to our behavior as teacher role models. The fact that God created the heavens and the earth informs how I teach the origin of life. Knowing that Adam’s sin caused all mankind to be born into sin gives me a realistic expectation that my students are sinners and I shouldn’t be surprised when they sin. Experiencing new spiritual birth in Christ gives me hope that my students also can be transformed by Christ’s love. Being filled with the Holy Spirit gives me the power to bear fruit of the Spirit even toward difficult students. Confident in the soon return of Christ, I can encourage my students that all will be made right and injustice will be punished and destroyed. A biblical worldview is the strong framework around which we can build educated and godly students.
