I do. I make connections with kids that I know also share our faith :) but they have to bring it up first.

I do, but in a rural area so much less restrictive and supportive of faith concepts that other places I've heard of.

Me, but my kids go to the Christian school. It opened when my oldest was entering 8th. My youngest started the next year in 7th.

I'm too close to retirement to leave

Yeah stick it out as long as you can. 🙏

I do for now.

Insurance and retirement are why I'm staying.

I do.

Just a bud river and technician here, and a pastor at a local Baptist church….however my wife homeschooled all four of our kids K-12 with one daughter left after this year. This was never my dream job but I stayed for the benefits.

I taught at a Christian school for many years and moved to public in order to prepare for retirement. I like my school and do miss the Christian school but there are many kiddos here that need love and attention

👋

I work in a charter school. This will be my first time leaving Christian school education

I do 🙋🏻‍♀️ and I’m the advisor of a student led Christian club on campus .

Yes, in adult education-we are salt and light wherever we may be

I’ve mostly worked in public schools (30+ years), but I worked in a parochial school for two years when I was in my 20’s. After I retire from public education next year, I may return to private for another 1-2 because I know that there will be more shared values with the families I serve. The philosophical and curriculum changes that I have seen in my district have been disturbing in so many ways.

Growing up was rough. On my 8th birthday my dad had an accident that led to this death a few days later. He was a good man who took care of us all (I had 3 siblings now 2; lost 1 few years ago). I'm in a good place in life right now I only find myself in the last 5years shedding a tear once a while when I'm alone. It startles me because I was a tough kid who didn't cry and just soaked it all in and rolled with it. I'm almost 40 and can't explain what's happening with these tears.

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).

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?

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.

"Christian" has become a confusing term for many in the outside world, I believe largely because it is used to describe a wide variety of denominations, each teaching something theologically unique.
What denomination do you most identify with? Did you grow up in this denomination, or did you arrive at this understanding later in life?

Hello! I am starting a Bible study devoted to teachers! This season has been hard, and I believe teachers need to be poured into so we’re able to pour into the kiddos.

It’ll be remote, and I was hoping it could be accompanied by an encouraging group message as well. Let me know if you are interested and we can find a way to connect!

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...
