QUESTION 1(Answer in the comment Section) – When you think of teachers that made an impact in your life – what qualities enabled them to do that? What made them a great teacher?

Question 2 – When you think of teachers that wasted your time – what qualities did the possess that made the class a waste of time? What are some qualities that teachers should never have if they want to be effective?

I’ve been wanting to do a series on qualities of great teachers for a while now. Since I’ve finished most of my formal education, I often find myself looking back on the experience. I can probably name on both hands the number of teachers that I thought made a class worthwhile and had an impact on my life. I’m convinced that the teacher will make or break the class as well as the subject.

Teachers have the ability to change lives forever – my question is – why can most people only name 5-10 teachers that had that kind of impact on their lives? Teachers are missing it! They have an opportunity to influence students in a way a lot of us never will… I’m convinced that teachers are able to learn how to become a great teacher – that is why I want to write this series… I’ll take your thoughts and put them into the series!

I’m looking forward to your thoughts!

I’m obviously a big Kenneth Hagin fan and I really enjoying reading his books. I’d highly recommend all of them because of the truths contained in them. Of course, like any book, the key is application, but these books always provide truths that we constantly need to be renewing our minds to. Here are some of my highlights:

• Learn to not only get the what of God’s plan, but pray until you know the when and how
• Days of preparation are never lost time
• Your preparation time might not be comfortable because you have to die to your own desires and your timing and allow God to prepare you
• Find the race that God has set before you
• Don’t look around to see where others are in their race and try to get on their track and run. Let God speak to you where you are in your race.
• Many Christians are caught up trying to receive specific direction from God, but they forget to be a doer of the Word.
• You won’t be able to follow God’s plan for your life unless you’re willing to do whatever He might ask you to do
• Believers who follow God’s way may not always be able to see very far down the path, because following God is a step-by-step walk of faith and obedience.

Those were only through the first half of the book… If you’re need direction in your life or questioning how to figure out the will of God- check this book out.
