Be the Teacher

Hmm.. I've been thinking about career choices lately.

I want a job where I can make an impact on the world, let my personality shine, be a leader, make someone happy, and help others.

I think that "teacher" fits into this category. :)

Looking back, I can name a couple teachers that were just so incredibly awesome.. It was an instant *click* with them. They loved ALL their students, even the ones who were causing trouble in class :) they were patient, kind, and every student loved them. I can honestly say that Mr. Bittner & Mrs. Baker were definitely the best teachers I've had so far.

Mrs. Baker was my English teacher in 8th grade and like I said, instant *click*!!! She was funny and made learning fun :) She helped every student with what they needed no matter what. The classroom was filled with laughter (even on testing days).

Mr. Bittner was my Science teacher in 8th grade :) He totally understood ME! He was/is a non-denominational pastor and made learning science so easy!! On the very first day he noticed the "Pentecostal" look lol!! He also headed up a class called Leadership (I think??). We decorated for events, helped teachers in other classes. So many memories :)

I wish more teachers were like them. I wish more students appreciated these teachers too.

What I realized is that I want to make a change in other kids lives like they did mine. I want to be THAT teacher everyone remembers and visits whenever they are passing by the classroom/school. I can picture it already! *sigh* It just seems RIGHT.

I wish people were as thoughtful as you. You will make a huge impact on the world no matter what you become as a career because you have already made the most important choice of al. Following Jesus.

It warms my heart that such an amazing person as yourself cites me as a role model. You are a role model. You walk through life with grace, fortitude, intelligence and humor. Those are things that make great teachers but more importantly, they make great humans!!!

Bible Quizzer

Umm.... I had no idea what I was getting myself into lol! This is my first year of Bible Quizzing and man! I love it!!!!! :D I can't wait to go to the competitions!! :D We have to learn over 400 verses but as Bro. Vick & Brendan said "Don't look at the numbers." It's easier when you don't look at numbers and you just memorize and go over them everyday!!! I'm so excited!!! It has motivated me to get done with schoolwork lol. I hope we have a good (NOOO, a GREAT!) team so we can go to more competitions. :) Fun & traveling! Which teams do you know that are awesome Bible Quizzers?? Do you have any tips for a first time BQ??? :)

The Witnessing Tool

*Calling all Apostolic - Pentecostals* Do you ever feel like you're the only one who is different at school or work? The only one whose religion is TRUE and SEPARATED? That hears preaching from the Word of God and not from the "how-to" books? Yes, when we start up a conversation about what religion we are, they claim Christianity and know Jesus Christ is Lord, yet, they live amongst the world. Unseparated. 2 Corinthians 6:17 says, "Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean [thing]; and I will receive you," We feel like we're the only ones in school who don't wear mini-skirts, the way-to-revealing tops (also known as the how-much-skin-can-i-show-and-not-get-in-trouble-for-it clothing)??? For guys, you get asked the question, "Aren't you hot!?" way too much. Enough to get on your nerves. Being the only person they see dressed like this, at the very least you could say that
