Christian education has played a vital role in my own growth and development as a Christian. I believe that rooting all learning in our biblical beliefs and God's word, reveals new and wondrous revelations. God designed each and every little thing, and we have the opportunity to examine it in everything we do. We find God in places most people would not see. We see it in Math, English, Science, Music, Art, and many more areas of school. Having the opportunity to explore these ideas and understandings helped me develop a strong and deep-rooted faith in God, and I hope that in my teaching I can have the same impact. All in all, Christian education means opening a door for young students to learn and grow their faith as they are guided in their understanding of themselves and God's role for them. It means we can help the next generation of Christians stand firm in their faith and revel continually in all of God's works. 

My favorite Bible verse is Romans 8:31,  “What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?”
