Effective teaching is important not only to the Christian faith but to the success and impact of Christian ministry.

Terry Linhart has more than twenty-five years of experience training youth workers. In Teaching the Next Generations, he brings together expert Christian educators representing a broad array of evangelical institutions and traditions to show how teaching connects to discipleship and the church in current contexts.

Top Highlights

“Wilkins defines a disciple as ‘one who has come to Jesus for eternal life, has claimed Jesus as Savior and God, and has embarked upon the life of following Jesus.’” (Page 11)

“There are at least two ways that teaching interacts with discipleship. First, teaching informs discipleship.” (Page 12)

“To view the first task of a theology of education as ‘creating a space’ is to allow for new ideas to arise and old ones to be given new voice.” (Page 16)

“ but most teaching that contributes to maturity is tied to the relationships that surround it.” (Page 4)

“While it is a false distinction to try to identify which relational activities are teaching and which are discipling, a discipler is a teacher, and a Christian teacher is a discipler. Jesus’s ministry exhibited the way teaching and discipleship are indistinguishable from each other.” (Page 5)
