Synopsis
The Herzog Foundation is proud to partner with the Museum of the Bible to host a two-day Museum of the Bible Teacher Retreat focused on Scripture’s historical impact. Interact with the origins and founding of Western Civilization and the US by unpacking the historical context of the Scripture.
Museum of the Bible Teacher Retreats are an investment in the lives of educators who are making a difference in the lives of students. It is imperative that Christian school teachers continue to study and grow in their knowledge of Scripture as applied to the world we live in today to be the most influential witness they can be in the classroom. During this teacher retreat, you will have the opportunity to interact with Scripture in new ways, tour our nation's Capitol, rest, and connect with peers.
Explore the transformative power of the Bible by engaging with the story and influence of Scripture. During this teacher retreat, you will learn about the Bible’s influence throughout Western Civilization and American history. You will also examine the faiths of influential thinkers and leaders and study key moments in the founding of America. This training will include the Museum of the Bible’s Impact Floor and sites around Washington D.C.
Who’s It For?
We strongly encourage at least two members from each organization attend together. We consider everyone who works at a Christian school an educator in that they have a direct impact on the lives of our students. As such, anyone currently employed at a Christian school or homeschool organization may attend including classroom teachers, campus pastors, spiritual life directors, church-school leaders, and the leadership team.
