Christian education is an overwhelming task. It is the work behind "spiritual formation." And, which of us can dare to take this responsibility lightly.
Saint James wrote, "Let not many of you become teachers, knowing that as such we will incur a stricter judgment." (NASB)
This is a responsibility from which we cannot escape. Everyone who calls herself a Christian is engaged in Christian education. Our behavior and attitudes are lessons for others, whether we like it or not. However, there are also the more formal settings of Sunday school classes, Bible studies and organized discussions.
This is the work with which I've been entrusted, first by Gerontissa, and then by you, as you've continued to provide support. Now, I'm asking for your thoughts about what matters most to you about Christian education.
- What do you want in a Christian Education program for your family?
- What do you want your children to know, to do, to be?
- What ages do you want targeted?
- What do you want for yourself?
My wish list:
- What I'd like for our programs: Time and space.
- What I pray for our students: To be so in love with the Lord Jesus Christ that they are ready to die for Him.
- Who I'd like in our programs: All ages.
- What I pray for myself: To be so in love with the Lord Jesus Christ that I am ready to die for Him.
