If you are in the Quakertown,PA area come out this Friday night for a night of worship and ministry. Looking forward to see how the Holy Spirit will move!

A new generation is rising up. God is on the move and working through His church. My son got baptized today along with many other students from our youth group. Thank you Jesus for this generation!

Mark your calendars! Jake Kail is coming to Telford. If you’ve been struggling with any life issue and just can’t figure it out, come for deliverance and be set free.

Social-Emotional Learning has helped to create this problem. It cannot help to fix this problem. If and when people call for more of it, say no. We need less of it. Zero of it, ideally.

Christ followers need to wake up to the fact that our battle is not against people. We are in a spiritual war so we need to fight with spiritual weapons. The father of lies has veiled people’s minds. They do not know what they are doing because of the deceptions of the evil one.

Me: Curriculum doesn’t include whole books. That’s bad! Them: NBD, teachers can add books to the curriculum. If only it was that simple. Unfortunately, when teachers are left to choose lesson materials, studies have shown they select books below grade level. Also… 1/

I’m pretty convinced, after 28 years of teaching, that districts are intentionally dumbing down their curriculum for elementary students. HMH Into Reading is the McDonald’s on ELA curriculum. Lots of filler but nothing truly good for the mind. edweek.org/teaching-learn…

Yes! This! It’s more difficult each year. And there are also children who just flat out don’t want to do the work because it’s not fun. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Since when was learning supposed to be all fun? Sometimes it’s not. Sometimes it is. Learning to persevere through it is another necessity.

That time when a Muslim scholar mistook John MacArthur’s confidence of being ready for Heaven as self-righteousness and gave MacArthur a perfect opening to share Gospel truth…

An educator visits a local classical school and is amazed by what students can do: kindergarteners name all continents, first graders write in cursive, kids work calmly without chaos. Classrooms are simple with only useful educational materials. She asks why schools stopped

This is amazing. And why I move away from using technology in my classroom. Now I feel like it’s a good day if my students don’t touch their school sanctioned iPad! instagram.com/reel/DTiXDRuFJ…
