Why is what you believe about creation important to your role as a Christian educator?
-
What I believe about creation shapes my worldview. What I believe I pass down to my students. It is important that I believe that God created the world as Genesis 1:1 tells us and that I help students understand how important it is that we begin science with that right thinking. God is a god of order and purpose not chaos. His fingerprint is all over this world and we need to help students see it. Genesis and creation are the answers to a lot of life’s big questions and I want students to know that and trust God’s Word as they ponder those questions.

The Bible tells us that we are here because a loving God created us and this world. Based on that foundation, I can grow my faith and fulfill God’s plan for me. Without that foundation, I might be tempted to behave as if I were here by chance and nothing really matters.
