A Home for My Heart

The desire to belong is a universal human experience. However, teachers may struggle to always know where they belong due to the unique challenges of the job. Needing to make an annual decision about continuing to teach can be unsettling. And investing deeply in relationships with students, co-teachers, and parents, only to have those relationships change from year to year, can be draining.

Verlin speaks into these struggles and offers practical advice and wise encouragement. When teachers serve out of love, stay active in God’s kingdom, and seek wise counsel, they can find a home for their hearts.

“A Home for My Heart” was presented by Verlin Miller at Western Fellowship Teachers’ Institute in August of 2024 at Lighthouse Mennonite School in Halsey, Oregon.
