“I think the perfect example of a teacher is Jesus and He was the master teacher. So if I could be anything like Him, then wow, we could change the world. So during my time at OBU I studied the four gospels and saw Jesus’ teaching methods in the four gospels. I was able to write a thesis paper and evaluate Him using the teacher evaluation system that was used on me as a student and that is now used on my students here. Of course, Jesus passed but I was able to see His instruction in the way He taught His students, the way He cared for His students, come to life. If we can be like the master teacher, we can change the world.”
