As we begin another homeschooling year, take a look at this article by Pastor Stan Pace, Education-The Art of Beholding. It is a wonderful reminder to let our passion for education and learning shine as we teach our children.

Pace writes, “True education happens when the teacher himself/herself loves to behold beautiful things. When, in love, and with the wisdom that makes knowledge lovely, he teaches his students to behold and love these same things, the child becomes a “student,” i.e., a pursuer. It’s hard not to like something when someone you love loves it. ”

He ends the article, writing, “When a student is taught to love learning, then he is on his way to becoming human and to finding his fruitful place in the garden of God.” Beautifully put. And, isn’t that what we’re all striving for? God bless!
