The TrainBibleTeachers.com site exists to help churches with teacher training, specifically to have a plan that tailors training to truly fit the needs of your Bible teachers.
Know the Importance of a Teacher Training Plan
When churches have an ongoing, purposeful plan for teacher training, rather than haphazard efforts, it helps to:
- emphasize that teacher training is a priority
- enhance efforts to provide a quality biblical education to help people grow in their relationship with the Lord
- exemplify the value you place on God’s Word
Communicate the Plan
In order for the plan to accomplish the above objectives, people need to see that there is a plan. It needs to be communicated …
from the start when recruiting new teachers,
regularly to all Bible teachers,
on occasion to the congregation at large.
Have a Flexible Plan
We’ve seen how church life can change. With that has come changes in teaching ministry structures and methodology. We need to adapt training to help teachers adjust to those changes. Having a teacher training plan is important no matter what church life may look like but it may need to be adjusted from time to time to accommodate current circumstances.
Apart from that, teachers themselves sometimes change the age they teach or the program in which they teach. As teachers learn and grow in their teaching, they need to be taken to the next level. Further, teachers are at different places, so a one size fits all approach fails to truly meet needs.
To tailor training to truly fit the needs of your Bible teachers takes a plan that can change and adapt.
