"With this innovative and exciting new book, Jared Dees embraces the ancient practice of lectio divina as a dynamic framework for faith lessons your students will never forget—and encounters with Christ that will transform their lives." —Lisa Mladinich, Founder of AmazingCatechists.com
"Jared Dees is the encouraging mentor every catechist and religion teacher needs. In Christ in the Classroom, we discover ways to not only assist students in learning more about Christ but, more significantly, to also provide frequent opportunities to lead students to him." —Pat Gohn, Editor of Catechist and author of All In
"As a director of religious education for the last forty-five years, I am absolutely convinced that Jared Dees is spot on with this approach." —Peggy Pigors, Coordinator of Adult Faith Formation at St. Clare Parish, Santa Clarita, California
"Lectio divina lesson planning is an awesome catechetical method. Since I teach every day, I cannot thank you enough for this priceless approach." —Gerri Jose, Master Catechist at St. Elizabeth Parish, San Francisco, California
Jared Dees, creator of the popular website The Religion Teacher, shows how applying the steps of lectio divina to teaching can reorient religious education toward encountering the person of Christ rather than merely sharing information about him.
In Christ in the Classroom, Catholic author and speaker Jared Dees applies the five steps of lectio divina-reading/learning, meditation, prayer, contemplation, and action-to the ministry of catechesis. He offers teachers and catechists a practical framework for preparing lessons that broaden the focus of teaching from mostly intellectual learning to also encountering Christ in prayer, reflection, and action. Using this method, students and catechists come to know intimately the person of Christ at the same time that they are learning the tenets and traditions of the Church.
Dees shares stories of success and failure from his own teaching experience and he offers dozens of field-tested strategies, tactics, and teaching methods to effectively integrate the steps of lectio divina into the classroom or other catechetical setting. Outfitted with these tools, both experienced and new religious educators will feel confident in their ability to teach effectively and lead their students to a life-changing encounter with Jesus.
