Bible Teachers' Roles - Teacher Training Resources
Bible teachers who want to have the greatest impact in students' lives must see themselves as more than someone who communicates God's Word. In addition to their role as communicators, impacting teachers also become conduits, disciplemakers, equippers, friends, models, motivators, and servants.
During times of trouble, caring teachers may also find themselves fulfilling the role of comforter, counselor, listener, encourager, and intervener.
