Teachers have a challenging and often difficult job. They need
inspiration. Christian inspiration
You're God's Gift to Teachers provides biblical encouragement to
teachers. Uniquely, this book is targeted directly at teacher
issues, with passages organized in 50 topics from A-Z. While the
focus is on the bible verse, the author writes a specific context
for teachers for each passage. This helps the reader have a greater
understanding of the application, and therefore appeals to not only
the "strong Christian" but also the newer Christian or even someone
simply "interested" in a Christian perspective. Topics include
Caring, Confidence, Empathy, Faith, Generosity, Helping Hand,
Integrity, Laughter, Leadership, Perception, Priorities, Service,
Teamwork and many more. A recurring theme is that God has given you
the gift of being a teacher. While the teacher is finding
encouragement through the passages, they are also to "pay it
forward" to their students.
A passage on Love from Romans 12:9 states "Don't just pretend to
love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to
what is good." Author Marder adds "Loving a student really means
never giving up on them and constantly expressing hope. Show them
you value the difference between right and wrong, something they
can hold onto for their whole life." The topic on Positive Thinking
from Philippians 4:8 states "And now, dear brothers and sisters,
one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable,
and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things
that are excellent and worthy of praise." Marder notes, "So now you
know - it's not the self help gurus of the 20th century that came
up with the power of positive thinking In fact, Paul speaks to the
issue 2000 years ago. In this letter directed to the Christian
church in Philippi, it is noteworthy that he is providing this
encouragement from jail (on trumped up charges) The days for
teachers are often long and challenging and it would be easy to get
down. Keep you mind on the good things in life to keep your spirits
up."
There are over 170 pages of topics, and teachers have a place to
jot notes, thoughts or prayers, that may be prompted by the
reading, about or for students or others. This makes this quality
hardback book both a workbook and a resource book for now and the
future.
