Every believer is mandated to make disciples. Every believer is called to this until the ends of the earth understand and know that Jesus Christ has been given all authority over every aspect of creation. As Christian schools, we are tasked with and it is stated in our mission and vision in some form to produce faithful followers of Jesus Christ. If we are to do this effectively, then this must be an inside-out thing. We must believe and practice what we hope others will receive. We must Be Authentic! In this first session, we will explore the five marks of a true Christian educator by reflecting on the practices of Jesus, our master teacher.
Key Questions:
What is the AIM of Christian education?
What should Christian educators PROCLAIM?
How should Christian educators PREPARE to fulfill their calling?
How should Christian educators CULTIVATE disciples of Christ?
How should the Christian educators LIVE before others?
Go Deeper Questions:
What does this mean for me personally?
What should this mean for my organization?
How do th4ese truths apply to my role?

Jesus preached to the masses, yet he spent most of his time disciplining a small group. He not only served the sick, the marginalized, and the outcasts, he endured the scorn and the shame of the cross as if he were one of them. He was able to do all of this because he continually drew his strength from the Father. All in all, he set an example for us to follow. In this final keynote, we will take a deeper look into the last two marks of a true Christian education: Cultivate long-lasting relationships and Live by example.
Interactive Session and Workshops
This year’s convention will feature an interactive session and a workshop block, offering participants opportunities to connect with colleagues and explore practical strategies. During the interactive session, educators will gather with others who teach the same grade level or subject area and participate in a facilitated discussion using questions based on the keynote material. The workshop block will offer a variety of topics, with participants choosing one workshop to attend.

A student is not above his or her teacher. A teacher who prepares with excellence will teach with excellence, and their students will experience excellence. How does the authentic Christian educator deliver a transformative education to their students? In this interactive session, we will take a deep dive into the third mark of a True Christian Educator: Prepare. We will explore the principles and practices of authentic integration by writing a lesson plan together.
