The Master Teacher--Summary

The Role of the Teacher is to join the Holy Spirit in guiding, instructing, and shepherding God’s people toward obedient living in Christ. It is not enough for the teacher to dispense truth, he/she must model, hold fast to, and warn in relation to it. A teacher cannot just be a giver of information, but rather a catalyst for life-change.

orientations:by observing what Jesus didby establishing wise principles of teachingby putting the principles into practice

By observing what Jesus did…

Proclaiming truth: capture interest and relate to the problems, and needs of students

Instructing in truth: show how the Bible is relevant to students’ experiences

Healing with truth: lead students to appropriate the Word as the answer to their personal needs. (Professor Roy Zuck)

Telling a Story

Three things to remember when telling a story:

1. Tell a story with purpose

2. Use the six journalistic questions: Who? What? Where? When? Why? How?

3. Land the meaning

Jesus told stories to prompt listeners to obey.

The Good Samaritan

“Which of these three do you think was a

neighbor to the man who fell into the

hands of robbers?”

(Luke 10:36, NIV)

1. Have something to say!

The opening (first 10 seconds) of Jesus’ stories established the setting.

1. Who?

2. What?

3. When?

4. Where?

5. Why?

6. How?

2. Catch their attention

22

Main body

He replied, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him. This is why I speak to them in parables: "Though seeing, they do not see; though hearing, they do not hear or understand.” (Matthew 13:11-13, NIV)

3. Develop the meaning

Page 23: 1 The Master Teacher--Summary The Role of the Teacher is to join the Holy Spirit in guiding, instructing, and shepherding God’s people toward obedient.

23

The final sentences of Jesus’ parables prompted a response: He usually didn’t have to state the main point,

because it was obvious from the story. He usually established the analogy in the

first sentence. For example, The kingdom of heaven is like . . . (Matthew 13:31).

He often ended His stories with a convincing question: How is He then his Son?” (Luke 20:44b, KJV).

4. Apply for life change

Teach using questions

Questions clarify and challenge our thinking Questions help us place attitudes in proper

priority Questions guide actions toward the proper

outcome Questions prompt us to obey Questions establish Scripture as the

reference point

Page 25: 1 The Master Teacher--Summary The Role of the Teacher is to join the Holy Spirit in guiding, instructing, and shepherding God’s people toward obedient.

25

Using Questions

For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world, and lose himself, or be cast away? (Luke 9:25, KJV)

“If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' love those who love them. And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even 'sinners' do that.” (Luke 6:32-33, NIV)

Page 26: 1 The Master Teacher--Summary The Role of the Teacher is to join the Holy Spirit in guiding, instructing, and shepherding God’s people toward obedient.

26

Using Questions

And He said to him,

"What is written in the Law?

How does it read to you?”(Luke 10:26, NASB)

Page 27: 1 The Master Teacher--Summary The Role of the Teacher is to join the Holy Spirit in guiding, instructing, and shepherding God’s people toward obedient.

27

Principles of Asking Questions “Have you not read?” – Jesus rarely asked

knowledge questions such as Who, Where, When? but he often asked probing questions such as Why or How?

Pauses are effective Versatility: start or end with a question Encourage to ask questions. Rarely use “yes” or “no” questions.

Matthew 9:36“When Jesus saw the crowds,He had compassion on them, becausethey were harassedand helpless, likesheep without ashepherd”.
