Have you ever considered WHO you're teaching, or WHY God has placed your students specifically in your classroom this school year?
Roots Institute School Founder Giacomo Caturegeli from Italy, shares how God grabbed a hold of his atheist worldview by drawing him with His loving kindness while on a entrepreneurial journey in Texas... He shares how in turning over his heart to Jesus, he and his wife both responded to the dream of God to found a school "system" that will introduce a dark nation to the LIGHT through the power of Biblically rooted currriculum. Though you may be teaching in public education and have no intention of leaving your post, or birthing your own school, Giacomo's story of obeying the voice of God to reform the world of education will encourage your heart's intentions to follow our King to be the salt and light of Christ at your school.

What are you carrying alone that Jesus is inviting you to entrust to Him? Friend, sometimes the weight of teaching follows us home. A conversation keeps replaying. Feedback becomes a question about our worth. Preparing for tomorrow turns into trying to prove we’re enough. In this episode of The Connected Educator: Abiding in Jesus, Teaching from His Victory, I share a painful experience from my recent practicum—and how Jesus met me through encouragement, honest conversation, and support as I worked through the hurt. Together, we’ll slow down with Scripture and explore Jesus’ invitation to bring Him what we’re carrying, receive His care, and take our next faithful step with Him. In this episode, we explore:
What does staying connected to Jesus actually look like when students need you and your plans unravel? Friend, you may love Jesus’ invitation to abide in Him—and still wonder what that looks like when a student responds sharply, your lesson goes sideways, or you’ve already said something you regret. In this episode of The Connected Educator: Abiding in Jesus, Teaching from His Victory, we bring abiding into three everyday classroom moments and explore practical ways to receive His wisdom, remember what is true, and respond with Him. We’ll explore:
What would change if you walked into school already secure in how deeply you are loved? Friend, you know Jesus loves you. But what happens to that truth when a lesson falls flat, you receive difficult feedback, or you go home replaying a moment you wish you had handled differently? In this episode of The Connected Educator: Abiding in Jesus, Teaching from His Victory, we slow down with John 15:6–14 and Romans 8:15–16 to explore what it means to remain in Jesus’ love—and let belonging become the place we teach from. We’ll explore:
Where do you turn when your students need more than you feel able to give? Friend, you care deeply about your students. But caring can begin to feel like carrying everything—and somewhere along the way, you may find yourself teaching as though every outcome depends on you. In this first full episode of The Connected Educator: Abiding in Jesus, Teaching from His Victory, we slow down with John 15:1–17 and explore Jesus’ invitation to remain in Him, receive His love, and draw from His life throughout our teaching day. We’ll explore:
