What do you hope to gain from this course? In what specific areas do you hope to grow as a Christian educator?
-
I hope to gain a deeper appreciation for the implications that a Christian Philosophy of Education has on every aspect of education. All day-to-day decisions should go through the filter of God’s Word.
As a Chrisitan Educator, I want to grow in the following areas. I want to take my students to the Word more. I was challenged to open the Bible itself and talk with the Bible, not around the Bible. I want to show students that we are to love the Lord with our heart, should, MIND, and strength. The mind aspect is foundational to education. Finally, I do not want to contribute to a generation arising that does not know the Lord.

Through this course, I would like to know how Christian philosophy is connected to the classroom. Also, as a Christian school teacher, I would like to see a more realistic model that how the truth of the Bible affects secular education such as science, math, English, and so on.
-
My hope is to be able to inspire my students to want to know God. My hope for them as a Logic teacher would be for them to love wisdom and to love their fellow man. My hope as a Latin teacher would be for them to love history and learn of covenant time – to see how much our culture is like that of ancient Rome where Christianity eventually flourished.

I am hoping to more define my Christian philosophy of education.

I hope to grow in my ability to clearly teach the Bible to students in a way that is both understandable and challenging.
