Teaching With Power: Drawing Your Family And Others To Christ By Tad R. Callister & Kathryn S. Callister
Details
In our world of uncertainty and confusion, the need for inspired gospel teachers, both at church and in our homes, has never been greater. In Teaching with Power, Tad R. and Kathryn S. Callister help Latter-day Saints understand the great importance of teaching and inspire them to acquire a large measure of the Spirit and the skills needed to be effective instruments in the hands of the Lord.
The Callisters weave insights from their experiences as teachers and parents with words of counsel from prophets, both ancient and modern, to expound the many important facets of teaching - including becoming more in tune with the Spirit, focusing on the doctrine, developing practical teaching skills, and striving to edify and love those we teach.
This book will benefit not only those who have Church callings as teachers but also parents and others who have opportunities to teach loved ones at home. As gospel instruction as become more home centered in recent years, each Latter-day Saint truly is a teacher and has the opportunity to engage in the Lord's work of guiding His flock to lasting conversion.
"The goal of teaching is much more than just facilitating learning or even doing", the Callisters write. "it is about helping those we teach to become converted disciples of Jesus Christ, meaning to become more like Him. That is the mission of every teacher." As we try to emulate the Master Teacher in our efforts to instruct others - and with His divine help - then perhaps we, like the sons of Mosiah, will be able to teach "with power and authority of God" (Alma 17:3).
