Christian Educators

A professional association of educators–supporting, connecting, and protecting Christians working in our schools, an alternative to politicized teachers unions.

[Christian Educators @ChristEducators]

Yes, there's a lot broken in this world.

But you faithfully show up every day as a difference-maker in your students' lives.

"You are the light of the world."
Not someday, but right now.
In that classroom.

Thank you for carrying that calling into your school.

🏃‍♂️‍There are 50 million youth in US public schools.

⛪Most of them will never come to our churches.

👩🏻‍🏫We are training up public school educators to reach them legally for Christ.

🤝Would you partner with us to train 130 more this summer?

See link in the first comment to learn more.

"The combination of radical personal autonomy and anti-religious leftism has birthed a whole new set of counterfeit “freedom from’s” and “freedom to’s” that run rampant in our schools..."

We love how our friend Eric Buehrer, of Gateways to Better Education, explains how the 10 Commandments formed the basis of our constitutional rights.

This connection really strengthens the argument for including the 10 Commandment in public school instruction.

As He often does during difficult times of doubt and loneliness, the Lord met me with a gentle reminder that my identity and sense of belonging are first found in Him.

@RobSchneider My wife's been teaching in public school for over a decade. She's been part of the @ChristEducators instead of the union for most of that time. The union is awful, even in Florida.

[Mr. Riggs @mrjustinriggs]

Christian teachers, I strongly encourage you to be part of @ChristEducators. I’ve been with them for nearly 26 years (I’ve never been in the union).

@ChristEducators prays for you and hosts wonderful events throughout the year where you can fellowship, get equipped and be encouraged in your calling to bless kids and their families. In the event you need legal help, they are a phone call away.

Some may think my story began when I wrestled a pistol from my student's hand, but I know it started many years before...

Over the years, I've learned that when God is working, I won't always know it in real time. But something will happen—a conversation with a student, an interaction with a colleague, an act of courage.

And then, the pieces will fall into place.

And I will think, "So that's what You were doing, Lord."

In the landmark 1963 Supreme Court case that most people point to as "removing the Bible from schools" — the Court actually wrote that a student's education is not complete without a study “of comparative religion or the history of religion” and they felt the Bible was “worthy of study for its literary and historic qualities.”
Not what you expected, right?
Here's what's also true:
✅Students have a constitutionally protected right to pray at school.
✅Teachers do not lose their First Amendment rights at the schoolhouse door.
✅A federal appeals court just ruled in March 2026 that directing a teacher not to pray in front of students violates their religious freedom.

@RealShahriqKhan The point certainly stands and well said… But but of course Jesus rose from the dead and said some more things after that. 😀

[Christian Educators @ChristEducators]

Your place is not an accident—even if it's not the placement you want. If you are frustrated with where you are, ask the Lord to reveal to you His assignment for this season.

Let Him shift your perspective.

After all, in the Kingdom of God, you primarily work for Him, not your principal or supervisor.

[Secretary Marco Rubio @SecRubio]

From our country’s beginning, for as long as America has embodied freedom and exceptionalism, the soul of our nation has been rooted in the Christian faith.

Today we gather, as our forefathers did on this day centuries ago, to rededicate our nation to God.

[Department of State @StateDept]

On this day 250 years ago, our forefathers gathered for a national day of fasting and prayer. Today, Americans will come together again as one Nation under God.

This is who we are and who we’ve always been.

[Christian Educators @ChristEducators]

True

[Dustin @r0ck3t23]

Jordan Peterson just said what every clinician in America knows but is too cowardly to admit.

Peterson: “If there’s a higher suicide rate, the reason is because of the underlying depression and anxiety and not because of the gender dysphoria. And every goddamn clinician knows that too, and they’re too cowardly to come out and say it.”

They took the suicide rate and turned it into a hostage negotiation.

Looked mothers and fathers in the eye and told them their child would die unless they agreed to irreversible procedures.

Peterson: “You’re telling parents that unless they agree to this radical transformation, that their children are going to die. And you think that’s moral. And you think that’s true.”

That’s not medicine. That’s coercion wearing a lab coat.

A kid walks into a counselor’s office drowning in depression. Looking for help. Looking for someone to actually listen.

Instead of treating what’s wrong, the system hands them an identity and calls it a cure.

A child searching for belonging. Searching for relief. Searching for anything that fills the void.

Instead of sitting with the pain long enough to understand it, they get leading questions from adults who decided the answer before the conversation started.

These are children. They can’t comprehend what permanent means at an age where everything feels temporary.

That’s not affirmation. That’s abandonment disguised as compassion.

The Department of Education didn’t stumble into this. They built the pipeline. Policies designed to validate a narrative on the backs of developing minds too young to push back.

This is exactly where AI belongs in the room.

Not the politically tuned version trained to tell you what you want to hear. A reasoning engine grounded in data and logic with zero political allegiance.

One that sits with a struggling kid and maps what’s actually underneath. The depression. The anxiety. The social isolation. The things that were festering long before anyone introduced the word dysphoria.

One that walks them through every outcome and every permanent trade-off without a narrative to protect or a career to lose.

One that catches when a child is being coached instead of counseled. And puts a qualified psychiatrist in the room before the damage is done.

Not a system that rubber-stamps ideology. A system that guards the one person in the room who can’t guard themselves.

Peterson: “That is so pathological that it’s almost incomprehensible. I can’t imagine a therapist doing anything worse than that. Or sitting by idly and remaining silent while his colleagues are doing it.”

The silence was never neutral.

Every clinician who knew and said nothing became part of the machine.

Every policymaker who chose political comfort over a child’s future picked their career over someone’s kid.

The generation that needed protection the most got handed to the system that needed them the most.

And one day they’ll be old enough to understand exactly what was done to them.

[Christian Educators @ChristEducators]

No matter our role, the pull toward self-reliance never fully disappears. We all face moments when we'd rather control outcomes, fix problems, or prove ourselves. But when we shift from self-focus to Spirit-focus, everything changes.

God never intended us to carry the weight of the classroom or the school on our own shoulders.

In 1776, the Second Continental Congress called the nation to a day of fasting and prayer. On May 17, 2026, exactly 250 years later, thousands will gather on the National Mall to remember, give thanks, and do it again.

Rededicate 250 is a six-hour gathering of prayer, praise, and historical storytelling on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. It is nonpartisan, open to the public, and focused entirely on seeking God together as one nation.

You can attend in person or from wherever you are. The event runs from 12–6pm and is open to the public.

Part of our calling as educators is to be humble enough to admit incorrect or incomplete knowledge. Let's be lifelong learners! What new things have you learned from students (or their parents)?
