Christ in Your Classroom

Book excerpt: In our nation, Christian teachers are prohibited by law to share the message of salvation through Christ with their students. However, as highly visible members of their communities, teachers have a tremendous opportunity to lead people to Christ directly or indirectly by projecting a life that honors Christ as the person at the head of their classrooms and in their interactions with other stakeholders in the school and community. Christ in Your Classroom is a guide for educators who wish to honor God through their work, but it also emphasizes the need for Christian integrity and consistency in all areas in one’s life. Hodgdon provides a candid look into his own life story and his frequent stumbles during his walk with Christ and how God inspired him, the least likely of people in his own admission, to create this unique manual for educators.
