Teachers:

What a sacred privilege we have to “proclaim the name of the Lord”.  And what a blessing to have the extra nudge of knowing we must be prepared to teach what we study when we are spending time in the Word.  I sincerely hope that your times in the Word are filled with the illumination of the Spirit and that God applies His Word deeply in your heart and the hearts of your students.

Our training sessions are a great time to be encouraged by the companionship of a room full of people who share the same desire to bring their students to a fuller knowledge of the Lord.  For your convenience this year’s Teacher Training Session is offered on two dates: Saturday, February 3 (9:30 AM-12 PM) & Monday, February 12 (6:30-9 PM).  You can choose whichever best fits your schedule.

This year’s focus is on the “Seven Laws of Teaching”.  I’m sure it will help you to be more effective as a teacher.  We’ll explore how an understanding of the lesson, language, teacher and the teaching process, as well as the learner and the learning process can improve your effectiveness as a teacher.

The Saturday morning session will include a light breakfast and the Monday evening session will include dinner.  Please R.S.V.P. to Casey Southerland at casey.southerland@gracebpc.org or mark your Fellowship Card which session you will attend.
