How to recruit and train outstanding teachers and volunteers
A Sunday school ministry can be full of challenges. Whether you are a pastor, a professional Christian educator, or a lay Christian education director, Sunday School presents you with a never-ending need to find the right people to teach, equip them to be the best teachers and leaders they can be, and keep them coming back from year to year.Delia Halverson, the country's best hands-on expert in Christian education, knows these needs, and how to fill them. She knows that while people volunteer in Christian education for a variety of reasons, the primary one is relationship with other leaders. She knows how to structure teacher training and equiping in the midst of today's busy lives. She knows how to recognize and encourage the individual talents volunteers bring with them to the Christian education setting. Most importantly, she knows how to share this wisdom and insight with you, so that your Sunday School and Christian education program can succeed in forming faithful disciples of Jesus Christ.
Let Halverson and Ready, Set, Teach! be your guide as you work within and for your Sunday School and Christian education ministries.
