It’s a Good Day to Be a Teacher – a book review

Are you a teacher, or do you have a favorite teacher? This book is a pocket-size reminder that teachers have a ministry in the army of God. The 52 devotions are divided into four seasons with stories, scripture passages to pray aloud, lessons to ponder during each week, and suggested Bible readings for extra credit. I suggest using it in conjunction with a journal to record your daily thoughts and prayers. The book would be a great gift for your favorite teacher, or for yourself.

Refresh and Refocus Your Teaching Heart

Today’s educators face unprecedented challenges in and out of the classroom. Teachers, paraprofessionals, administrators, and special education teams need more than a few words of encouragement and a pat on the back.

Divided into four terms—fall, winter, spring, and summer—It’s a Good Day to Be a Teacher targets the trials and joys educators encounter year-round. The weekly devotions provide:

  • Spiritual insights and inspiration
  • Courage to continue the calling
  • Practical steps for application
  • Additional suggestions for deeper study

Teachers who use the tools of God’s Word and prayer will be encouraged and empowered as they witness God at work in their students, classrooms, and schools. This book helps educators teach from a place of purpose and peace and provides hope and strength to teach another day.
