  14. The Role of the Holy Spirit in Teaching • Holy Spirit as Revealer • Holy Spirit as Gift Giver

  15. Holy Spirit as persuader The Holy Spirit is the only persuader of spiritual truth (1 Cor 2:1-16)

  16. Holy Spirit as persuader • “Christian education is a cooperative process, a venture involving both the human and the divine. Human teachers communicate and exemplify truth; the Holy Spirit seeks to provide guidance, power, illumination, and insight to the teachers.” • -Roy Zuck

  17. Holy Spirit as Gift Giver Although all people are commanded to teach, certain people are spiritually gifted to teach.

  18. Holy Spirit as Gift Giver Write a definition of the Spiritual gift of teaching:

  19. Holy Spirit as Gift Giver Definition of the gift of teaching: The supernatural ability to lead people to Christ-likeness through the transmission of spiritual truth through the power of the Holy Spirit.

  20. Holy Spirit as Gift Giver What does the “gift of teaching” look like? In other words, what is the difference between natural ability and the gift of teaching?

  21. Holy Spirit as Gift Giver

  22. Holy Spirit as Gift Giver

  23. Holy Spirit as Gift Giver How does one know if he or she has been given the gift of teaching? • Is there an unusual thirst to learn spiritual things? • Is there and unusual ability to understand spiritual things? • Is there an unusual desire to teach (Jer 20:9)? • Is there a natural ability to teach? • Do people benefit spiritually from your teaching?

  24. General Principles • Teaching is a joint venture 1 Corinthians 3:6 “I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God made it grow.”

  25. General Principles • Just because you have the gift of teaching does not mean that you do not need to be diligent in your preparation. 2 Timothy 2:15 “Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.”

  26. General Principles • How to develop the gift of teaching (Roy Zuck): • Exercise the gift (1 Tim 4:14). • Observe others who are effective. • Get training in the principles of teaching. • Have someone observe your teaching and make helpful suggestions.

  27. Role of Man in Teaching • Discipline 2 Tim 2:15 • Creativity Christ’s Example: Conflict, parables, sermons, dilemma, illustrative, and expository. 

  28. Role of Man in Teaching • Passion This is the “sacrifice-it-all” attitude that you bring with you to a lesson that tells your students that you believe what you are stating. This is evident in the way you stand, speak, move, what you say, and how you live. While passion is difficult to define and impossible to imitate, it will never be missed.
