What are some ways you can apply the concepts learned in this lesson in your classroom?
-
Weave scripture into all of my lessons. Make it the first thing.
-
As the guidance counselor I use these concepts on a daily basis. I always begin with the question of where they are at in their relationship with Christ and then move directly into the Word. The scriptures are a constant and I believe that sharing the truth is the only way to walk along side our students.
-
We need to creatively find ways to connect all of God’s Word to the topics learned in course, to not only stick to the familiar recounts of the Bible. This requires us to get into God’s Word ourselves and to become familiar with ALL of God’s Word. To look for opportunities to teach God’s Word as He leads each part of the lesson (through us) IE: when addressing behavioral problems in course, take the time to open up the Book of Proverbs- even if it isn’t on our agenda to do so.
-
It is important to make sure all of Scripture is taught. Additionally, we should make sure students understand that Jesus used the Scripture. There are many who would say they believe in Jesus but that they do not believe in all of Scripture. That statement is a contradiction.
-
I think a big step is to faithfully tie each Scripture we cover into the overall story of the Bible. It is easy to pick a Scripture that applies to the subject or topic but not tie it back into God’s plan for salvation through Christ. I want to be more intentional with using Scripture within context of the whole story of the Bible.
