Listen "Episode 55: (RenewRec) Books to Shape our Approach to Teaching"
Episode Synopsis
While it's always important to have a strong foundation for a Christian education philosophy (and constantly lean on resources to strengthen that foundation), we also need resources to go to that next level and help to shape our teachers' approach to teaching in a way that's consistent with that philosophy.
Jon Eckert's *The Novice Advantage* and Sarah Mackenzie's *Teaching from Rest* and incredibly helpful resources to shape the posture teachers need as they approach the task of teaching. While the two authors are writing toward different audiences, both books are highly practical and applicable. And, our teachers, regardless of their experience level, can use resources like these to continue to learn, risk, and reflect (Eckert) and bring with them a grounding of rest and security (Mackenzie).
