I am a teacher at a public high school. Every Wednesday morning I meet with a few other Christian men (teachers and a counselor). We talk about our lives and pray for each other. I have found it to be extremely encouraging.

Do any other public school teachers here meet with other believers at work? If so, what are your meetings like?

Wow that sounds like a great group! How did it get started? How long is the meeting/prayer sesh?

It started when I suggested to another teacher who I knew well that we should get together with other teachers who are believers. I don't know most teachers at my school very well, but he knew everybody. He contacted every male teacher he thought would be interested in our group.

It is encouraging to meet, but it's a little discouraging how few of us there are.

We only meet for about 30 minutes on Wednesday before school.

2. Comp packages will get readjusted…

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...

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).

Glad to be hear folks. I am sure I am not alone but I have experienced many attacks from my administration for simply answering questions about my faith in class or telling students I do not believe in abortion. Hoping to find some insights from others here in regards to still being a Christian example in public education without losing my job.
