Renewing the Mind Series

 

As a Man Thinks, So He Is

The word of God is inspired, authoritative, and “profitable for teaching”. As Christians, we are to be not conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of our mind. With these convictions we will examine what the Bible has to say about education and how scripture impacts every subject area in our curriculum.

 

 

Learning With Jesus

According to Matthew 11:28-30 Jesus has a burden which is light and yoke that is easy. He encourages us to learn of Him. In light of this scripture, are our education plans for our families being driven by the well-meaning world which emphasizes external achievements, transcripts, and degrees, or the Son of God; who is meek and lowly of heart?

 

 

Biblical View of Education

What does scripture say about teaching our children? Which subjects should we teach? Who is called to teach? Where should instruction take place? What should the makeup of our classroom be? How can we build relationships as we learn?

 

 

Encouraging and Raising Lifelong Learners

What skills, tools, and subjects are important in our children’s training? How can we light a fire in our students and encourage them to become lifelong learners? How can parents teach and inspire without burning out in the process? We will think about academics and attitudes in this workshop, recognizing there is no ‘one size fits all’ in education.
