As you know, we're talking about how to improve as a Sunday school teacher and how we can do a better job. Our text verse is 1 Timothy 4, 15. Meditate upon these things, give thyself wholly to them, that thy profiting may appear to all. So I want to share a few more truths with you that might bless you and help you as you look at and consider this. Never teach your students without feeling. Never teach your students without feeling. This can't be dry, dull, emotionless teaching. It's the word of God, it's salvation, it's true, it's real, it makes a difference and you want to be passionate about what you're teaching. There should be a tear in the corner of your eye. You're not there just to fill up the hour. You're there to really see a difference made in their lives. So love them in what you say, care about them and make sure that you are teaching the word of God from your heart and with feeling. That's very important as you teach them.
W. Austin Gardner:Now, if you really want to get better, you want to listen to great teaching and preaching, and there's plenty of that. You got your pastor and you have other preachers and you have the internet, and just make sure you get something appropriate. But listen diligently, Don't just listen to get the message of the thing. You want to watch how they use their introduction. You want to watch how they make the point of their lesson. You want to see how they use their introduction. You want to watch how they make the point of their lesson. You want to see how they structure the lesson. You want to see how they use their voice in the message or in the lesson. You want to see how they involve the class, the students, the congregation. You want to see what kind of aids they might use in their message or in their teaching. You want to watch to see how they give an invitation and how that invitation is what the lesson was about. You want to see how they keep everybody's attention.
W. Austin Gardner:So what you want to do is you really want to work at this. You really want to work at this. You really want to say I am working at honing my craft of being a Sunday school teacher. So work at it and develop all you can for his honor and his glory. Now you're going to develop your own style, but as you watch every preacher that comes into your church to preach, and as you watch your pastor and as you watch others, you'll begin to pick up things you say I like the way he does. He gets their attention. Doing that Well, he's so clear in what his points are. Boy, I see how the invitation works. So listen to learn the truths and also listen to use them yourself. You can't be like the big shot preacher, you don't have the time he has in it, but you can get better and better as you teach a Sunday school class, and that's my challenge to you that you would do just that.
