The Bible is clear; because of the fall, our world is now short of the glory that God first intended, which means we tend to either overwork or be lazy. Very few of us have achieved a healthy balance. Join us as we see what God says about work, rest, and balance in the light of the gospel.

Responding to Teaching Challenges with Faith & Hope: Episode 03 Where we find our worth can make all the difference between loving teaching and despising it. Why? Because when our worth is fixed on anything other than Christ, it's vulnerable, and everyday problems can become attacks on our very identity & self-worth. Join us as we explore why fixing our identity & worth on Christ creates a sure foundation and enables us to respond to teaching challenges with hope rather than anxiety.

Responding to Teaching Challenges with Faith & Hope: Episode 02 Whether it's a huge trial like a cancer diagnosis or day-to-day struggles like that 5th-period class that you think might just be the death of you, we all face challenges & trials. Knowing why we face these is vital to our ability to respond well. So, join us as we see what the Bible has to say about why difficulties exist and how we should think about them. This episode is part 2 of our series on Responding to Teaching Challenges with Faith & Hope. Check out the full series at www.teach4theheart.com/challenges.
Responding to Teaching Challenges with Faith & Hope: Episode 01 When we face challenges, anxiety, fear & stress often well up. We worry about what will happen, we stress about what to do, and we often carry anxiety around in the meantime. Not only is this difficult for us to deal with, but it also hampers our ability to respond well - sometimes it even paralyzes us. This is NOT how God would have us live, and it doesn't have to be our reality. Join us as we dive into how exactly we can trust God and experience the peace that He promises us.
