In this episode, Natalie Tysdal sits down with Beth Hutchison, affectionately known by her students as "Hutch," to explore how faith, empathy, and critical thinking come alive in the history classroom at a Christian school. Beth shares what inspires her to teach history, her unique approach to engaging students, and the power of connecting historical events to God's sovereignty.One particularly interesting fact from the episode: Beth created and teaches a course called "Controversial America: The Study of the 1960s," which dives into pivotal moments like the Civil Rights Movement, the Vietnam War, and the cultural shifts of that era. She designed the class to make history vibrant and meaningful, helping students see themselves as part of God’s ongoing story.Tune in for insights on teaching sensitive topics, fostering historical empathy, and encouraging students to play an active role in shaping history—both in their own lives and in the world around them.Thank you for listening.
