How teachers begin the lesson can make quite a difference to the success and flow of a lesson but also in the receptivity of students to the truth to be presented.
Do your Bible teachers realize how important the introduction is to a lesson?
A good lesson introduction will:
- help shift students’ attention from the world to the Word, transitioning from where they are to where they need to be
- help break the ice, tearing down walls that might prevent total participation
- help answer the question of why they should engage in the lesson, giving them a reason to learn
Do your Bible teachers realize how important the introduction is to a lesson? If not, they might find it easy to skip over the introduction or not make it what it should be. Challenge them to invest sufficient time in planning the introduction. Though it should be the last part of the lesson they work on, they shouldn’t skip over it or skimp on it.
Jesus is Lord forever
Amen!
