@TalksWTeachers This will be my 40th year! I’m still excited every single year. New faces to impact. Changing up how I teach every year. Getting to know each kiddo outside the academics is both heartbreaking and motivating. We are TEACHERS! We are DIFFERENCES MAKERS! We get to shape the future!
One reason why many people don’t hear God consistently is because they haven’t practiced listening or activating it. They also have trouble determining whether what they’re hearing is from God, themselves or other sources. Practice will actually break this through in your life.
5 tips for defusing mouthy kids.
1. Focus on “what” instead of “how.”
2. Stay personally connected w/out taking it personally.
3. Feel “sad for” instead of “mad at.”
4. Second to last word is best.
5. Walking away = strength.

Isn’t it ironic. In NY a murderer, rapist, or school shooter can’t receive a lethal injection—but a child in the womb can. Legislators that pass these laws will have to give an account to God for every murdered life. May God have mercy on our nation. https://t.co/tlguQ4gbcV
I love my husband. Oh man, I love my children & my grandchildren. Way beyond words, I do. I love my friends & co-laborers in Christ so deeply. But the love story of my life has been with Jesus of Nazareth, whom I have never once seen & whose voice I’ve never once heard out loud.
As we move into the 21st century we can't can't keep teaching like it's the 20th century. It's hard for everyone; but we teach the future and it's different than the past.
