SAVE 30% - Jesus Christ the Master Teacher - 10 Count

In Jesus Christ, the Master Teacher, Wayne Jackson examines the many facets Jesus’ teaching. He explores both the Lord’s authority to teach and the wide variety of great themes that Jesus developed during his earthly ministry.

Also considered are the teaching methods of Christ, along with the practical nature of his instruction. The Lord’s use of illustrations, together with his compassion for people, was phenomenal. The Savior’s uniqueness of presentation and his claims about himself are of critical importance.

For example, his dual nature of being both God and man helped him to thoroughly understand what needed to be taught and how to teach it. This perfect insight had an unparalleled impact on the world. Just imagine if we could emulate only 10% of his passion for teaching. How would that change you as a teacher and thought-leader?

Further, it will be interesting to note what Jesus did and didn’t claim about himself as a teacher come from God. Have we ever stopped to think about how our influence is hampered or enhanced by what we reveal about ourselves? The teaching of Christ was fresh, compelling and authoritative. He used logic brilliantly. His questions and illustrations were poignant and memorable. Yet all the while, he exuded humility as a teacher who truly cared for his students.

As gentle as Christ was, he also knew how to turn up the heat. Ever teacher faces controversy eventually. How you handle those moments says a lot about how you teach. In a moment, your student can be lost or strengthened … all because of how you handle a tense situation. Christ knew exactly how to handle each and every situation with just the right amount of firm but loving resolve.

But Jesus wasn’t a freelance theologian. He respected the Old Testament scriptures and used them prolifically, with the care and attention to detail that is so often missing in the instruction of many today. And so he revealed truth in the text that had gone unnoticed and ignored … truth that had life-changing power for his disciples.

This book contains twenty-one chapters. It’s easily understood, fully documented, and packed with information that will enhance the library of any dedicated Christian. It is a work that you will consult repeatedly—especially so for ministers, church leaders, Bible class teachers and Christians interested in learning more about their Savior.
