Sunday School redux

Postby RedMage » Fri Jan 05, 2007 8:36 pm

So...this Sunday is supposed to be my first week teaching Sunday School to 3rd, 4th and 5th graders. If this sounds familiar to you, it's because I was supposed to start three weeks ago, but they decided to take the kids caroling at a nursing home instead.

So...yeah, pray that God will help me to connect with these kids and have them learn something. Lately I don't feel qualified to teach anything about God or the Bible to anybody.

I've never taught Sunday School myself, but I have taught young kids in Bible School and other similar things, so I understand how you feel. Just remember to be fun and upbeat, and try not to dwell on any particular thing for too long, because they have short attention spans at that age. Kids are great if you can just keep them interested. I'm sure you'll do great! Good luck! I'll be praying for you!

[color="RoyalBlue"][font="Trebuchet MS"]The simplest way that I can understand therapy is that we're born a certain way, we're taught to be something different, and we spend our whole lives trying to unravel it and ultimately align ourselves with who we really are. Life, experiences, traumas -- whatever -- they all add up to make you some altered version of what you are. So there's this battle that goes on between what you are and what you become, and it's been very important for me to unravel what I was taught to be or what I became. and to draw a direct parallel to music -- the closer I get back to being who I really am, the stronger the music gets..." --Billy Corgan (Smashing Pumpkins frontman)[/font][/color]

It is pretty easy, maybe moreso for my program, cause we received a booklet full of little stories and stuff premade to read out already. But either way, just try your best on it^^ I'll be praying...

独り 子 を 信じる 者 が 一人 も滅 ひない で, 永遠 の 命 お得る ため で ある。
