Overview

Jesus went about preaching and teaching. If you’re like most pastors, one out of two isn’t bad. But you’d like to do better.

You know that in teaching you can apply more specifically and discuss more thoroughly the topics you raise in sermons. You also enjoy the opportunity of getting closer to your people in the more informal setting of a classroom.

But if you’re like many pastors, you’re frustrated. Often you can’t find time to teach, and when you do, you can’t find time to prepare as you wish. Then there’s the challenge of teaching effectively both new Christians and mature believers, white and blue collar, young and old—at the same time. In addition, you wonder when you’ve hit the mark, when your teaching has actually brought people closer to Christ.

These challenges needn’t overwhelm you; they can be overcome. In Mastering Teaching , volume 8 of the Mastering Ministry series, three respected teachers show what steps you can take to enhance your teaching, to turn it from an infrequent add-on to an essential part of your ministry.

Top Highlights

“The Christian educator aspires to nothing less than to transform people into the image of Christ.” (Page 18)

“My goal is not to lecture, or even to lecture with excellence. My goal is to teach in such a way that students both learn and employ their knowledge. Christian educators should view themselves as nothing less than disciplers. The knowledge we communicate affects more than the minds of our hearers; it should change lives.” (Page 19)

“First, I want to take people seriously. I don’t just want to entertain or impress people. This is not show-and-tell time. I want to choose and teach subjects that really matter to people with an eternal destiny.” (Page 28)

“Second, I want people to enjoy the learning experience so that they will continue to want to learn.” (Page 31)

“ I want the class to feel the emotion the Scripture text conveys.” (Page 31)

    If you want to learn teaching, reading H.H.'s material is a great way to start. I turned to this when temp teaching in two classes and realizing that I wasn't connecting--instead just providing high-speed mile-deep content-focused lecture to those faithful enough to endure it. And the "faithful" kept diminishing. I read this 150-page Three-part/Twelve-Chapter resource C2C. It was academically helpful to me; if you need to teach "teacher training," consider using this resource. In fairness, my epiphany came later via a non-Logos resource: "Good Questions Have Groups Talking" by Josh Hunt...really hope Logos/Vyrso carries that someday--when they do, buy it!
