The duties and responsibilities of teaching demand much of the mind and
heart. Homework for the Heart is intended to encourage and energize
hardworking teachers in their week-to-week service to children and
youth. Created for both classroom and Sunday school teachers, these
fifty-two uplifting devotions will help individuals connect their
Christian faith to their mission as teachers. Drawing upon a creative
lesson plan format, the devotions use familiar school objects as
springboards to spiritual lessons. Each devotion features supporting
Scripture and a personal challenge to the reader, with a fitting title
such as "Extra Credit," "Pop Quiz," "Group Work," or "Show and Tell." A
short prayer, under the heading "A Word with the 'Principal,'" concludes
each lesson. Helpful teaching tips are included in many of the
devotions. And this book's small size makes it a companion easily
slipped into a desk drawer or tote bag.
