Putting it to the test

I had a chance to give the communion for our children's ministry teachers this past weekend. I took the opportunity to try and live what we talked about at class as well as some of the reading.

One of the main points I focused on was the "know your students." Although I didn't take time to get to know all the other teachers, we spent time sharing with one another the road to knowing Jesus. As each person talked about some of the memories they had leading up to baptism, it galvanized us and brought us closer. I love times like this when we connect by being drawn into each others world; which is also the Kingdom of God.

I guess the teaching element would be the connection between the Passover remembrance and the new covenant of remembering Jesus by the way he brought us from our sinful slavery to a life in the Kingdom.

Any thoughts on this, or anyone else been able to apply some of what they are learning?
