Kingdom Educators with Jesica Glover

88. What I Wish I'd Known About Boundaries w/Morgan Preston

God provides and blesses us when we tune in to His direction for our BEST YES[es] and gives us wisdom for what to say no to. We're learning that boundaries actually protect us and our families... so let's tune in this New Year to find healthy balance in our lives.
 
Morgan Preston wishes would have heeded the many warnings to put up boundaries in her teaching position. So when her son voiced the hurt he felt when he realized how much his Mama was investing in other peoples' kids through Morgan's ministry at school (and at youth group), Morgan pressed in for God's answer. Listen in to hear some good reminders when it comes to keeping healthy boundaries that protect our most important relationships--God, our marriages, and our kids [FAMILY]!

86. Practical Boundary Setting w/Jill Miller

One of the best ways we can build healthy boundaries is by setting ourselves up for success with a regular time with Jesus and dive into the Word of God. In Part 2 of Healthy Boundaries Jill Miller from Teacher Be Still reviews the power of learning to hear God's voice through connecting with His Word-- learning to discern His voice and follow His leading. She then leads us into a series of practical boundaries we can set for ourselves to make sure we're taking a Sabbath, keeping ourselves away from correcting EVERY bit of student work, bringing home work every night, and being so consumed with our "to do" lists that we don't put our relationships with others first.
 
Making sure we have health in our own families at home requires that we don't work all afternoon, or evening, and that taking time to be present is key. Jill encourages us to use her 3 part power to do list to hone in on the most important tasks for the day, and only adding to it if we can successfully accomplish any additional items. She also encourages us to celebrate finishing items... "because our "to do" list will never be done... and that is ok!" Thank you, Jesus, that you help us say, "no!" is another important boundary that has to be practiced and followed to mean anything to us or those around us. I'm excited to hear how this Boundaries Podcast Series helps improve your educator self-care!!

85. Why Set Boundaries? w/Jill Miller

As we begin this new podcasting unit of healthy boundaries for Kingdom Educators, I've invited Jill Miller from Teacher Be Still to join us as she has a wealth of experience on the topic as an educator, blended family mama, and business woman. She also offers professional development on this topic (see below for her contact info). During Part 1 Jill dives into the foundation of all of our boundaries as Kingdom Educators: purposeful time with God. Join us as we converse about the topic of boundaries, unmask the "hard" of spending time with God, and peak into hearing His voice for ourselves.

84. Check the Facts w/Amber Auger

Amber Auger from Beacon of Light joins us this week to discuss the incredible Check the Facts Curriculum they've created, released, and use as an educational tool in public, private, and homeschools across the U.S. Beacon of Light offers a totally unique, comprehensive sexual health curriculum that is free from the over-sexualized content and unbalanced messaging typically found in standard school curricula.
 
Check the Facts Curriculum program is designed to give students fact-based, balanced education on sexual health without promoting risky behaviors. Beacon of Light's Mission is to prevent the lifelong emotional, physical, and relational consequences of engaging in sexual activity at a young age. We do this by providing fact-based education that empowers teens to make informed, healthy decisions. We use a 10-day curriculum called Check the Facts in public schools.
 
This program covers essential topics, including:
-Anatomy
-Conception and Fetal Development -Identity and Stereotypes
-Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs)
-Boundaries
-Social Media Awareness and Safety
-Healthy Relationships
-Finding and Identifying Trusted Adults
-And so much more...

82. Truthtelling is Self-Care w/Bekah Hutchinson

To wrap up our self-care podcast series this week Jesica Glover invites us into the center of one of her Christian teacher community conversations-- and this week it happens to be with 2nd Grade teacher Bekah Hutchinson from SW Washington. Bekah invites us into her own experience of truth-telling which really hit home this summer when she attended a Christian Educators Leadership retreat where Jamie and Donna Winship invited a group of teachers into some identity exchange experiences with Jesus. This powerful time of encounter has continued for her as she's allowed the Lord to show her who he sees her to be and to allow herself to tell the truth in response-- often called confession. The process, for Bekah (and Jesica), has been powerfully freeing and has proven to minister deeply to their hearts, thus deemed a good took for self-care. Bekah even says, "I think truthtelling the highest form of selfcare." 
 
Our prayer is that our candid conversation would draw you into a deeper personal relationship with the Lord in which you can ask Him who He calls you to be and that in knowing your true identity and continuing to seek out His thoughts toward you (see Jeremiah 29:11 among many others!)-- that you're own heart would overflow with the truth that sets you free (see John 8:32)!
 
And if you're starving to connect with other Christian educators, hear what God is doing, who He's called you to be as a Kingdom Educators, and gain the support you need to stay fired up as a Teacher on Mission be the first to join the Kingdom Educators Community+ Membership HERE... cause the fun begins in December!!

81. Awakening Teacher Hearts

Get Ready to be encouraged... and welcomed into an AWAKE Experience coming to your area SOON! Heather Kohnen, Christian Educators Awake Experience Coordinator, joins us this week to continue our unit of Teacher Heartcare by encouraging us to connect with the faith community, dig into our true identity--- identifying lies and replacing with the truth, and holding onto the realities of we do have faith rights in our schools; yes, even in this hour! As it might be seemingly growing darker this is when the lights grow brighter! But we need to "go" with one another as we enter into an upgrade of "not just surviving, but thriving" as Heather says, as we gather together to recharge, encounter God's presence and voice, and hear real testimonies that will encourage our teacher hearts to run this race with perseverance.
 
To learn more about the AWAKE Experience offered closest to your area, please visit: christianeducators.org/awake and register here for the Wichita, Kansas AWAKE Saturday 2/8/25. If you'd like to talk to Heather Kohnen about hosting AWAKE in your region please reach out to her via email.

79. Teacher Heartcare Part 1 w/Melinda Wilson

Melinda Wilson with the Immanuel Approach Inner Healing Ministries joins us for a 2-Part Series addressing our Teacher Hearts. Often we don't take time to listen to our hearts, and while serving our students is a daily passion, we must stop to care for our own hearts so we can be good stewards of those under our care. This is how we get unstuck in our classrooms
 
Melinda challenges us to use some simple tools for listening to our hearts and helping students do the same. We are only in control of ourselves, but seeking out healing for what triggers us is a huge step toward breaking us more and more free to live the full life Jesus paid for... AND healing that will impact generations both in our families, schools, and cities! You are worth it... and be sure to HIT PLAY for Part 2...that'll help you step into your breakthrough. bless your socks off!
