The Educator’s Spiritual Health
To talk about teacher spirituality is to talk about human spirituality. According to Judeo-Christian anthropology, a human being is an inorganic matter that becomes a living soul by the breath of the Spirit of God. Therefore, this yearning for the transcendent, which we call spirituality, is an intrinsic condition of being human. We thirst for […]
What’s In and What’s Out: My Circle of Control
The deadline was looming: write an article on helping students learn to live within their ‘Circle of Control.’ I was delaying the process, making excuses, letting the urgent displace the important, fretting about what others would think about the article. That’s when I had a deeper revelation about my own circle of control and what […]
An Invitation to Integral Health

Triangles, Trains, and Excellent Teaching
As an administrator responsible for overseeing instruction, I could tell when good teaching was happening in classrooms. Yet while I could see and feel it, I had great difficulty articulating it. Every teacher is different. Every class is different. There is no one way to teach. And certainly no one way to create an excellent […]
Developing a Heart for Transformation
Dear Friends. I know this greeting isn’t a normal way to start an article. It is more personal to remind us that how God develops our hearts for transformation is personal. Personal, not because it is based on how you feel—we must still soak in objective truth. And not because it depends on you—the Holy […]
