07/07/25 07/09/25 America/New_York Teacher Apologetics | July 2025 | Washington, DC Synopsis  Do you ever feel like today’s students are speaking another language? That you can’t get through to them or understand where they are coming from? Students today are faced with more information, misinformation, indoctrination, and worldviews than we could ever imagine. Gen Z and Gen Alpha see the world differently. In this Teacher Apologetics Training, we will learn strategies to effectively reach these generations with Scripture.   For elementary teachers, we will learn how to combat competing worldviews from an early age. We will explore ideas around intentional and timely exposure to the ideas and dominant worldviews of our day. How do we use discipline, grace, biblical lesson planning, and more to captivate the hearts and minds of our students at an early age? At this training, you’ll learn tips and tools for implementation into your own life and the classroom.  For secondary teachers, we will address topics such as same-sex attraction and marriage, abortion, gender dysphoria, scientism, technology, and much more. This training is not intended to debate our beliefs on these stances but rather to discuss how to tailor our teaching practices toward the young minds in our classrooms while teaching from a solid biblical perspective. We will explore how we can combat the leading ideologies and philosophies of the day and guide our students to a deep and authentic care for the Scriptural response to these cultural conversations.   Who’s It For?  This training is for all K-12 teachers at Christian schools, deans, principals, counselors, and/or admin. Relevant sessions will split for elementary and secondary teachers. It is a great resource for your team to attend together, receive information tailored to their grades, and then come together for main lectures and meals. We strongly encourage at least two members from each organization attend this event.  Schedule  Day 1: 4:30pm-8pm | Hotel provided | Allow ample travel time to be ready for our 4:30pm start  Day 2: 8am-5:30pm | Hotel provided | Dinner on your own  Day 3: 8am-12pm | Do not plan travel that would require you to depart early  Museum of the Bible 400 4th Street Southwest, Washington, DC 20024 United States Teacher Apologetics | July 2025 | Washington, DC training@herzogfoundation.com true MM/DD/YYYY
