I’m thankful this week that I was a Sunday School teacher to a high school class for a while in the earlier part of this decade. This week I’ve had breakfast with students and acquaintances of those students all week long 🙂 Friends of former students who even wanted to get together. Neat folks, neat to have had some sort of impact. Neat to have the opportunity to continue to have an impact. Life is good.
When my own two kids were in HS, I volunteered to teach their SS class. I had a couple of goals: model being a credible Christian by teaching them sound Biblical stuff and then be able to say things to them as a teacher that I might not be able to say as dad. I still pray for all those kids pretty much daily.
