Objective: We can & will start the school year on a SOLID FOUNDATION

Bible Verse: LUKE 6:46-49 || Word of the Week: Torrent

Let’s make this Professional Development … G R E A T by starting off with our Life Fruit Pledge. Repeat & Join in with me: I’m victorious in teaching especially at this time | I’m powerful beyond measure if I let my true light shine | Speak life bear fruit, my learning is lifelong Speak life bear fruit, My spirit and soul are STRONG! So strong! Venn Diagram time!

Similarities: 2 Men, 2 Foundations, Flood occurred, the torrent burst against the house

Differences: On rock (comes to me, hears my words, acts on them)/ on the ground (heard, has not acted accordingly) Couldn’t shake it ; well built Immediately it collapsed ; great ruin

Torrent: a strong and fast-moving stream of water or other liquid: Similar: flood, deluge, inundation, spate, cascade, rush, stream, current, gushing, Flow, overflow, Tide , fountain, downpour, rainstorm, rain, shower Opposite: Trickle, drop When we back track, Is your school year on solid foundation? No matter how great a teacher you are as a person, the torrent will come. Are you finna be shaken or not?

We are nothing within our foundation to stand on. Similar to how teachers yearn for parents to send their sons and daughters to school with the foundations of respect for others, following directions, kindness, basic manners

Upper elementary expects all 3-5th grade students to have a solid foundation of phonics and basic adding and subtraction application

Middle school expects all 6th-8th grade students to be able to comprehend after reading 3 paragraphs, basic multiplication and division, and how to write a 5 paragraph essay with proper grammar/punctuation.

If We are Listening, then we are expected to ACT accordingly

= R E C A P = You are a lazy or wicked teacher if…

1. You are afraid, lacking confidence.
   1. Gen Alpha children, especially teens, need strong, confident role models. They will find somewhere, so why not be that positive role model who actually knows their names and cares instead of them following some rando on social media only looking for views, likes, and subscribes. Build your self-confidence, and if you need help join the “Last Teachers at School” facebook group
2. You go away from where you are needed
   1. You quit, when you are needed for a certain class
   2. You stay, when you are needed elsewhere
3. You hide your talent from others.
   1. Yes, you may not be able to do everything awesomely, but you do do something spectacularly. SHARE IT with others!

Spit on. Punched. Silenced. Insulted. Lied on. Welcome to the Male Educator Podcast where REAL TEACHERS find REAL SOLUTIONS from a REAL JESUS. This day in July starts a mini-series called “The Place Value of Teachers”

Objective: I can & will Save MYSELF as a Teacher. Biblical Base: JOHN 12:24 || Word of the Week: Value

Mark 23:37: "And even the rulers were sneering at Him, saying, 'He saved others; let Him save Himself if this is the Christ of God, His Chosen One.'" Matthew 27:42-43 / Mark 15:30 / Luke 23:37,39

“Why would a Great Teacher decide to NOT SAVE HIM/HERSELF?” John 12:24 English Standard Version Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.

How does this help me teach? Mark 8:35: "For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever is willing to lose for this world will have life." If you quit teaching before you know in your heart you are supposed to, then you will lose the life you were meant to have. You’ll have a job and keep existing, but as the weeks go by you’ll know that something is extremely different. Even with a huge pay raise, your life will not be fulfilling as it was.

As you are in service to God, the Father honors on Earth AND in Heaven. On Earth you receive provision (your family will not go hungry!) In my situation, I have not been evicted from my home and for 7 months I was earning $40 per week. * Do you choose to stay on your cross until you produce fruit? OR * Do you love your life so much that you are willing to lose it for eternity?

EXIT TICKET: To re-evaluate your PASSION Ask yourself,

“Do I want LIFE & BEAR FRUIT in my school?

OR "Do I want to save myself from the EPIC power and miracles that will occur by submitting to God's will for my life?"
