Target Biblical Perspective

To what extent do you provide value-added content?

14/04/11 20:38
If you want to help your students connect what they study and what the Bible teaches, provide value-added content. How? By providing new Biblical teaching. And by providing new connections between what they study and what the Bible teaches.
 
Question: Why valued-added content? In other words, why “new” Biblical teaching? Why “new” connections?
  • Because students attend Christian schools to learn new things.
  • Because in my experience, students are more likely to get engaged when studying new Biblical teaching and are more likely to get turned off by going over the same Biblical teaching.
  • Because students like learning about new connections, like making new connections, and dislike overusing the same connections.
Target Biblical perspective. Provide value-added content. Today.
