Today's Christian Education Commentary
with Harold Naylor
Do you know what type of character qualities you are trying to instill in your children?

Few of us ever sit down and make a written list of the character qualities we are attempting to teach our children and model for them. If we did, certain aspects of our parenting would certainly change. After all, seeing goals spelled out and defined in black and white can be a powerful took of focus, self-examination, and reprioritizing.
Partnering with a Christian school in your child’s education can be a great way to help you as a parent start to focus on the specific character qualities you want to see develop in your child. It can also help ensure that many of those qualities are being deliberately modeled to your child every day by Christian educators.

It is important remember (as a teacher) that we are really partnering with the parent. Sometimes it is easy to think of ourselves as the primary responsibility holder in training the students, but that isn't the case. The parent is the primary person, we are there to assist them in whatever way we can.
Character education should be based on Biblical teachings, and these can best be taught through in-depth studies of Bible characters. My vision is to teach young teens godly character based on character studies from great Bible characters like Lydia, Joshua, Ruth, Boaz, Peter and Paul. There is power in the Word; why not use it to help instill character in our children?
