Education Teaching

Stuart’s advice: Take a deep breath and refocus on six known best practices—establish and strengthen key beliefs, then build knowledge and increase reading, writing, speaking and listening, and argumentation in every content area, every day.

This audiobook is a restatement of the life and teachings of Jesus as recorded in the New Testament Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Like an earlier effort by Thomas Jefferson, who produced The Jefferson Bible in the early 1800s, its purpose is to distill from the scriptures only those verses truly portraying the life and teachings of Jesus. Each major event of his life is treated individually, and then arranged in chronological order. Thus, it presents the story of Jesus as it actually took place, from birth through death and resurrection.

Workshop teachers struggle with time—building in two teaching sessions, one for reading and another for writing.
