This Free Professional Development series with Teacher Retention Specialist David McDuffie prepares teachers for the 3 temptations in the life of an educator. If school districts taught this, there would be

1. a drastic decrease schoolwide/local/regional scandals,

2. a drastic increase in teacher and substitute retention for the entire district,

3. a drastic decrease in teacher turnover rate per school, and

4. an overwhelming growth in Generation Alpha school culture or network impact.

The Lust of the Flesh is the temptation highlighted this free PD session; speaking on a majority of schools in the United States having a No Touch policy with Gen Alpha students; practicing professional work relationships and having patience until the relationship is more appropriate; and NOT having sexual relations with students (Not Ever), but seeking someone to lean on (God above and moral friends beside) to help get you through natural urges or temptations. The impact of listening:

As a Black Educator, my eyes are open to the fact that different trials are not racially based, but spiritually testing. I was fighting the wrong foes. As a Male Educator, I'm empowered to tell other males in education about these temptations so they dont fall like millions of males have previously. Gen Alpha needs the structure and rizz that only male adults bring to a community.

As a Husband/Father, I will now pray more often to ensure I have the spiritual strength to teach and not be tempted in these 3 ways negatively imoacting my job, career, nor reputation.

As a Christian, I know I will be persecuted for following Jesus and proclaiming his name in school but, I should do this humbly and watchful understanding that if I slip one week on my prayer life, then my spirit will be weak to succumb to certain temptations. So I stay humble and stay praying, because positive family growth is happening in my school district.

 

Objective: We can & will have more control in our teaching profession. Biblical base: 1 John 2:16/ Matthew 26 | Word of the week: Self-Control
