Even in the Christian world, we can learn from secular teachers and scholars who have familiarized themselves with Biblical principles, even if they do not realize it. Who are some of these that you follow? Do you follow them often or sporadically? Currently I'm listening to the Jordan Peterson podcasts....www.jordanbpeterson.com/podcast/. Lots of great information from this psychologist who eventually found Christ. He has several audio books out as well. Worth your time to listen IMO...

Agreed, there is much to learn from those who do not follow Christian teaching, though they have learned of it. My brother introduced me to Jordan B. Peterson and I love listening to his work. I can't necessarily think of other "scholars" at the moment that I necessarily listen to regularly, but I do know that one of the hosts of the "Stuff You Should Know" podcasts was raised Christian, so he brings some of that to their episodes. I learn a lot from them in other aspects. I think I more so listen to various denominations of Christians to learn how people approach the Word, though I do stand by my own understanding/denomination. The secular people I listen to I do not necessarily know that they familiarize themselves with Scripture. I like "The Art of Improvement" and CPG Grey for informational purposes.
I am always on the lookout for others to learn from, so thanks for starting this discussion. 😊

Also found out they ask you not to reapply for 1 to 2 years for same role. Would anyone recommend an alternate path for feedback on interview (outside of recruiter) and is the 1-2 year policy true?

Additional Posts in Christian Educators

There are 100+ illustrations like this in my hallway because an English teacher thought it would be clever to use "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" to teach imagery. I can't imagine too many more succinctly effective ways to misrepresent God than this. Since I have a tendency to just jump straight to what someone has done wrong and how they need to fix it immediately, what would you say?

Has anyone here used the "Read Scripture" app? It goes through the entire Bible and includes accompanying summary videos from "The Bible Project" (whose videos can also be found on YouTube). I love how it groups portions of Scripture and the videos are helpful for making meaningful connections with the text. I love these for myself, but they're super kid-friendly, too. Excellent support for your daily study. Enjoy!

Summer Reading.
I've just started (finished the introduction only), but already I would recommend highly to anyone claiming the name of Jesus Christ as our Lord and highest authority. The author is a brilliant man I've listened to for years. There may be some here who won't like it, but I would encourage Christians everywhere to take a step back and think about what is going on here. This *will* affect the way we do life & our jobs, as well as the way we love one another as Christ has commanded.

I recently discovered the "Just Thinking" podcast, dealing with social and cultural issues through a Christian lense. Started with an episode recommended by a friend, then just HAD to go back to episode one and start listening all the way through. So appreciate the work the Lord is doing through these gentlemen.

Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God, 3 but every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. This is the spirit of the antichrist, which you have heard is coming and even now is already in the world. (1 John 4).
