60. Honoring the Surrendered Teacher Life w/Julio Vega
For Teacher Appreciation Week we're featuring Julio Vega's story of waking up (literally!!) to the calling of God on his life to be a Teacher on Mission. You'll be invited to reengage with your passionate call to live a life of love laid down for Jesus as you take steps of faith to serve with Him at school just through listening to several of the humble testimonies Julio shares from his teaching experience in south Florida. Be empowered to know that you're not alone in your calling to transform lives with the love Jesus in our school system, that often as Julio reminds us we just be the only "Jesus" or our classrooms may be the only "church" setting our students come into contact with. God is on the move and He's inviting us to partner with Him in planting seeds and harvesting them, too! Be on the lookout as you listen to this episode for ways God IS MOVING at your school and how He is already using you, His Beloved Ambassador.   We believe this episode will provide fuel for your tank as you aim to grab a hold of heaven's hopefilled perspective in this hour as Kingdom Educators empowered by the God of the Impossible!!   Please be sure to rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast and share with your friends in Education.

59. Kingdom Identity Comes with Authority
Apr 23 2024
59. Kingdom Identity Comes with Authority
How do I respond when I see kids acting abnormally and I think it's demonically derived, not just "normal" spectrum behavior? How do I respond when weird things-- even phenomena happen on my campus? At its simplest roots we walk onto our job sites knowing Jesus has already won over sin death and the grave and because we're seated with Him in heavenly places we have indeed won too. In fact, we have the robes of righteousness to prove it. We are seated above all principalities powers and dominion and that Jesus has won over sin, sickness, and the grave. The enemy is under His feet and if I am seated in Him, which is what Ephesians 2:6 says, then the enemy is under my feet, too. The enemy of my soul is subject to me. In fact, Jesus said he gave His disciples the keys to the Kingdom, and we're included! We are ambassadors representing Him as the light and life on the earth. Everyday we get to execute the realities of the Kingdom here on earth in our classrooms, at our schools, in our communities! Listen in for the practical examples and biblical backing for how we can utilize our God given authority everyday in our classrooms for the Kingdom to rule and reign in our classrooms. Prayer from Anna Marie Strausand: "In Jesus name, I place ____ in the blood of Jesus Christ today. Lord Jesus, release the power of Your blood over _____. Lord, let Your blood speak today over _____. Lord, Your blood speaks life now into _____. Lord Jesus, Your blood exposes and destroys all darkness operatin gin and around ____. Thank You, Jesus, for Your precious blood!"     Please be sure to rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast and share with your friends in Education.

58. Positioned to Win
As promised, Jesica Glover presents the biblical backing for walking in our Christ given authority in our classrooms. She starts of the episode with examining how Father God demonstrates that He doesn't call us by what we have or haven't done, but He clothes us with His Royal identity (which comes with a wardrobe) just because we're His Kids! Our Father God clothes us with His royal righteousness, authority and peace. We can call on Him anytime to show us how to execute our true birthright of taking the King's domain into our classrooms, schools, and neighborhoods.   Listen in to explore the power of each of the articles the Father gives the Prodigal upon His return: the Robe of Righteousness, the Ring of His Authority, and the Gospel Shoes of (Ready) Peace. Jesica believes we're being offered an invitation to grab a hold of our Royal Wardrobe, repenting of "basement" living to live in the Penthouse, where as Leif Hetland says "is the place we can see from Heaven's perspective." It's time to dress appropriately for our Mission as Kingdom Educators.   Please be sure to rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast and share with your friends in Education.

52. Bearer of Good News w/Andrea Brannam

52. Bearer of Good News w/Andrea Brannam
As many know teaching public school in Southern California isn't the easiest when it comes to being a light for Christ in the schools, but kindergarten teacher Andrea Brannam wasn't called into education because it was her career of choice. With the help of wise mentors she finds herself in a strategic place partnering with God to bring His Kingdom as a bearer of His Good News in the world of education! She's learned her teacher faith rights through partnership with Christian Educators, has developed a community of intercessors-- teachers and Mom's in Prayer-- to press forward with the plans God's laid on her heart over the years for her different schools. And one of those nudges that just hasn't gone away has been launching and fostering Good News Club, an after school student club that introduces children to Jesus through curriculum provided by Child Evangelism Fellowship.     If you're needing a faith boost as you press through hard things as a teacher on mission this is your episode! Since this recording Andrea has faced some opposition in launching a Good News Club at her new school, but the God of miracles has been faithful! This past Wednesday 2/28 she and her prayer partner successfully launched with 13 kids attending and several more filling out permission slips and planning to attend the next! Never despise the small beginnings, Kingdom Educators. God is so excited to partner with our willing hearts.     Want to learn more about Good News Club and the curriculum? Click HERE. If you'd like to learn more about your Christian Teacher faith rights please visit Christian Educators and visit the Resources tab. Both ministries offer a lot of great support, as Andrea said!     Please be sure to rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast and share with your friends in Education.

50. I'm a Teacher on Mission Part 2 w/April Reuter
Feb 18 2024
50. I'm a Teacher on Mission Part 2 w/April Reuter
Teacher April Reuter joins us, again, for this second half of her testimony of HOW TO BE a Teacher on Mission. Through her practical testimonies we learn that a Teacher on Mission: 1. Make Time to Pursue God & His Presence because we release whatever we carry. 2. Invite God to host His Presence on Your Campus. 3. Envision Your Staff & Students as God Does so that you can pray more accurately. Breakthrough happens when we're not impressed with our problems; instead ask the Lord, "What's going to come out of this?" 4. Start Praying-- over your day, lessons plans, meetings, and throughout the day. 5. Cultivate a spirit of Thanksgiving! Thank God for what He's done and what He will do. A thankful heart is good spiritual warfare against the tactics of the enemy. 6. Find Prayer Partners-- friends, churches, colleagues... and expect God to move! 7. Record the Testimonies to stir up your own faith and expectancy for how God will move and reread them on the tough days. Be amazed at what God has done and know your best testimonies will come out of the fire. Hold onto the promises of God and His goodness and get ready because God loves to "fall" on your willing heart! He's ready to move in and through you at school.     Be encouraged to grab hold of these testimonies and dream with God about what's possible for your classroom, your school, and your district! All things are possible for he who believes (Mark 9:23) and the prayer of the righteous avails much (James 5:16)! Sky's the limit when it comes into relying on Jesus as your power supply, wisdom, creativity, and breakthrough. Just like April's school, you could even pray that any toxicity in your school environment would leave by praying over the hallways, classrooms, and even the copy machine! God is always at work and He's looking forward to revealing His heart to those who are willing to steward His presence and His name. Fearing God is best kind of fear to walk in each day instead of the letting the fear of man rule out the possibilities of our God to have His way in our schools.     Please let us know of what you're dreaming with God and what's been happening on your campus! We want to be praying with you and for you for the dreams God lays on your heart to come to pass in your city. jesica@kingdomeducators.com     And be sure to rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast and share with your friends in Education.

48. I'm a Teacher on Mission Part 1 w/April Reuter
April Reuter tried to step away from teaching 12 years in... to do more "official" work for the Kingdom, but God called her back into full time teaching and gave her new lenses for seeing herself as a Teacher on Mission partnered with God as her power supply. With a huge heart to see breakthrough in her city through the power of prayer, April is now an overseer of the churches in her area, hosts an event of prayer for her city, and regularly encourages churches to support teachers in their strategic placement to bring the Kingdom however friend Holy Spirit leads. She has seen God break out through children worshiping, praying for one another, and through after school Bible Club... now dubbed Freedom Club! And don't mistake that this is a perfect school or a perfect classroom. April admits that she usually gets the hardest students, but God keeps surprising her with how He moves when she partners with Him through seeking Him first, dedicating her school to His presence, and being obedient to His leading!🙌🏻🙌🏻     My prayer is that this first half of April's testimony would supercharge your faith to dream with God about what's possible in your school as you yield to the voice and nudges of God! He knows how YOU are specifically wired and gifted, what your students need, and your school community. Expect God to show up when you yield your heart to His moving! He's so excited to partner with you each day on your campus. You are strategically placed to bring the Kingdom of Heaven to Earth! 🙌🏻     Hang Tight for Part 2, where April Reuter will return to share 7 Keys for Partnering with God at School! It's going to be powerful! 🔥🔥🔥     Please be sure to rate, review, and subscribe to this podcast and share with your friends in Education.
