Vacation Bible School is an amazing program that gets kids invested in their faith. I was gifted the opportunity to guide preschoolers through their Vacation Bible School experience and watch them grow in their faith. Vacation Bible School takes place at Hales Corners Lutheran Church, where I am a member. I helped with the set-up of the camp as well as be a leader for two days of the camp. The theme this year was “Cave Quest” and it focused on using God to find your way through life. Everyday of camp we started with devotion and songs. This part of the day always had a powerful impact because you could see the excitement in the kids eyes just coming to camp to learn about God. Next, we would go do a craft. The first day we made crosses out

    Last semester, I planned my first outreach event at the church. We had bounce houses, face painting, food, games, and candy. I worked so hard to get this put together and even members of the church used their own money to purchase things to make this event happened. There was door to door evangelizing going on in the surrounding neighborhoods to get the word out, and there were only two people in the community that showed up. Two people.

  • Biblical Worldview Reflection

    733 Words  | 2 Pages

    According to MacCullough (2012), knowing key worldview questions and biblical answers, a teacher is more prepared to integrate biblical worldview activities into their lessons. Moreover, this can be accomplished with ease in Christian schools by integrating the Bible and lessons from the Bible into the lessons being taught. For example, MacCullough (2012) talks about student processing activities and how one story opened up a whole discussion on God and how as humans we can talk to God and that He talks to us through the Bible. Additionally, Dr. Sam Smith talks about those in public schools and how they can integrate biblical principles. He affirms, “We believe you can integrate biblical principles in the public school best by living your life as a model of Jesus Christ and by doing what you do well” (Smith, 2012). This is encouraging for those who choose to work in a public school because, although they are restricted in what they can say, they are still able to integrate a worldview. This can be done by letting Christ shine through them to their students. Similarly, this approach can and should be done in both public, private, and Christian schools. Letting Christ shine through should not just be for those times teachers are in a Christian environment, but in every situation that teachers encounter in their daily lives.

    Humanity is made in the image of God. Therefore, all people have unique and valuable gifts to contribute to society. Every individual is also a sinner in need of redemption through Christ’s death and resurrection. Developing a relationship with Christ is the foundational purpose of my Christian educational practice. Instruction must be differentiated because each student is a unique creation. Effective differentiation is impossible without the guidance of the Holy Spirit and the use of research-based instructional methods and formative evaluation. Powerful teaching constantly modifies instruction to best address the needs of the each student and provides a foundation of love that recognizes each child as a gift from God.

    What is a worldview? A worldview, according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, is, “a comprehensive conception or apprehension of the world especially from a specific standpoint” (2017). A worldview is what directs us to do certain things and/or make certain choices. I believe it is important to know what your worldview is, so you can have a better understanding of life and can help those around you to better understand theirs. I developed my Christian worldview by studying the Bible. Being a Christian, I look at that world in a different manner than one who is not a Christian. I have gained an understanding of values, morals, and an overall purpose

From the average God with the white beard and tunic to a bright light with a thunderous voice to pop culture depictions such as Thanos and Odin from Marvel, Golden Superman from D.C., and The Creator from Darksiders.

    Philosophy of Christian Education A Christian philosophy of education is one of the cornerstones for a successful Christian school, which gives more than just academic knowledge, it gives an education of the heart. The simpliest thing we do as educators is taking students from I don’t know to I know, but what really we want them to know? Our goal is not merely giving them basic academic knowledge, but to prepare students to hear and respond to the “still, small voice” of God. and to love the Lord with all their heart, soul and mind (Deutoronomy 6:4-9).

When I entered high school, I began working as a Unit Aide at my camp which meant I had the privilege to now teach young girls a whole slew of tasks such as survival skills, first aid, and knife skills.
