Sunday Meditation

The Master Teacher

"The most important quality of a good teacher is pursuit of the truth; others include being knowledgeable, having a passion for the instruction of one's students, being a good communicator, being willing to challenge popular opinions, being honest & straightforward & not a manipulator, being fair, & being willing to sacrifice for the sake of truth. Actually, we can describe the qualities of Jesus of Nazareth & the qualities of a good teacher & our descriptions will be one & the same. The conclusion that should be drawn from this realization is obvious:  Jesus was the master teacher.
