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!!

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.

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...
