To provide Bible teachers with curriculum and expect them to effectively teach without providing training on how to teach the Bible<\/strong> not only is a disservice to the teachers but also to the students and ultimately the glory of God.<\/p>\n

Why Training on Bible Teaching Skills is Needed<\/h2>\n

\"Teachers<\/a><\/p>\n

Bible teachers need to have a sense of accountability both for what they teach and how they teach it.<\/p>\n

Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. (James 3:1)<\/em><\/p>\n

Bible teachers need to know how to prepare a lesson so they accurately present truth to students.<\/p>\n

Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. (2 Tim. 2:15)<\/em><\/p>\n

Bible teachers need to teach in ways that glorify God.<\/p>\n

So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. (1 Cor. 10:31)<\/em><\/p>\n

Training Needed to Help with a Variety of Topics<\/h2>\n

Much more goes into Bible teaching than following a lesson plan. Bible teachers need training on a variety of teaching skills. A good curriculum might include some age level<\/a> tips or how to implement the teaching methods<\/a> or visual aids<\/a> used in the lesson. But what about the following?
