Even with the increase of methods and classes, effective life change resulting from the teaching of Christian truth seems to be on the decline. Seeking to stem this trend, Gregory Carlson looks at the distinctive model of the Master Teacher, Jesus, in Rock-Solid Teacher. This exciting new resource uses the distinctive model of Jesus’ teaching to establish sound teaching principles, and then practically apply them to impact children, youth and adults. Teachers of all ages will gain confidence in their personal teaching abilities by being able to recognize good teaching practices, evaluate their own skills, mentor others, enhance their own ability to write lessons and mirror Jesus’ sound teaching principles. Jesus is the Master Teacher! In the Gospels, He effectively communicated great truths to crowds of people in a way they could understand. He knew how to tell a good story, and also to be succinct. He also knew how to offer His listeners a practical application, and how to use questions to provoke verbal responses and internal reflection. Through following some of the same rock-solid principles and teaching method s Jesus used, you ll see a positive difference in your own lessons. Whether you are teaching adults or children in a classroom, church or home setting, you ll find practical steps to follow that will help you communicate more effectively and thoroughly. GREGORY C.
