How does your biblical worldview currently influence your role as a Christian educator?
-
It is my why.
-
My biblical worldview has a great influence in my teaching because I am a vital part of teaching them about Christ. I teach very young students, so knowing that I can be a positive Christian role model for them is very important. I pray for the salvation of each of my students as they grow and learn. Being able to teach phonics or arithmetic and tie it all back into the Bible and God’s plan for our lives is what I feel called to do.

My role as a teacher of the Bible is an integral part of what God has called me to do within his greater purpose of making disciples in all nations.
-
My biblical worldview influences my role as a Christian educator in that I see my students as eternal beings and hold fast to the hope that Jesus is working out their salvation. I will likely never know the difference that I am able to make, or what might be remembered by my students even years later. The fact that I am part of a broader plan in God’s history feels significant to me, and I feel determined to keep that at the forefront of my mind in daily interactions.

I came from working in a public school where talking about Christianity was discouraged. I am now working in a Christian School and am learning to continue to bring that into my classroom. I will admit that it felt strange, but refreshing when I began to bring it into my classroom. I hope to learn and grow so that I can continue to find meaningful ways to share this with students.
