IN THIS EPISODE: In this episode, meet Amy’s husband, BJ, and hear how he has made his work as a teacher, coach, principal, and now FCA rep, his ministry field. We’ll all reminisce about what we miss and don’t miss about our various roles as educators over the years. If you’re a school leader, teacher, or support students in any way, you’ll be encouraged by BJ! (Check the show notes below for the books he’s written.)

We reference:

MATTHEW 5:14-16

You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

Your Turn...

When you think about it, every job is a ‘people’ job. Some are great evangelists, some can give money, some of us are nurturers, but all of us can point people to Christ right where He’s placed us. How can you be a light to others where God has placed you?
