My Philosophy of Christian Education
My main goal is for my students to learn that they are blessings, unique creations of God, who can experience a personal relationship with Jesus. As a teacher, I endeavor to guide students to first seek God's will in their lives, as opposed to searching after material and worldly objects. As God has created each student with unique gifts and challenges, a Christian teacher should support individual academic, cognitive, social, physical, emotional and spiritual needs. Furthermore, a biblical worldview should permeate every subject and area of instruction.
The Bible from start to finish is God's plan of reconciliation; the key is 2 Corinthians 5:17–21. We are Christ's messengers/ambassadors to bring this message of reconciliation to others, including our students. This is intriguing that God would entrust such an important message to me personally! What a responsibility; but it is encouraging to know that I have a purpose.
I plan to live my life as a good example for my students and their parents, through the help of the Holy Spirit. I will continue to learn and develop into the teacher God wants me to be, and continually and prayerfully examine my motives—is my main goal seeking first God's kingdom? I will seek to continue increasing my teaching expertise by allowing other teachers to mentor me. I will also seek the guidance of the Holy Spirit in doing His will, in teaching and all areas of my life. Click here to read more...
