Called and Equipped (eBook, ePUB)

A Bible Study for Teachers and Other Harried Souls

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Teaching isn't a glamor job. People don't go into teaching to become rich; they become teachers because they want to make a difference, to touch the future. They feel called. But lately, COVID-19 pressures, political astigmatism, a strained economy, mental health crises, and even gun violence have piled on more stress so a career that begins with an honorable calling sometimes sinks into mediocrity, even survival.

Called and Equipped, by author Karen Wheeler, was born of a need that was inspired by long, frustrating, and harried days as a teacher navigating the rough seas of public school while trying to maintain some semblance of a faithful Christian in practice. The vehicle in this study is a teaching environment, but this vehicle can go many places. While it is written from a teacher's perspective, non-teachers have taken the study and have found it very relatable and easy to transfer to their unique work and life situations.

Wheeler takes a journey through the Bible, a walk with Biblical characters who were often called into harrowing circumstances but were supported and equipped by God each step of the way. The lessons they learned are teachable moments for us. Through humor and insight, these lessons can still call and equip us in workplaces today.

Autorenporträt

Karen Wheeler taught twenty-five years in public school and spent almost that long as a Special Olympics coach since her son was a Special Olympics athlete. After her retirement, she held Bible studies for teachers, and then God laid it upon her heart to write this study that encourages, supports, and equips teachers for the colossal task that is teaching today.
