Finding new Balance: Approach To Education Grounded In Christian World And Life View

  • The three-legged stool
           - If we focus too much on the meaningful side of life, we'll have no money, and
             we'll never accomplish the mission.
           - If we focus too much on the mission, we'll lose sight of our financial
             responsibilities, and we'll forget to enjoy daily pleasures.
           - If we fiocus too much on money or never learn to acquire and manage money
             we'll find ourselves selling out the mission and living in a world without wonder
             or meaning.
  • The five dimensions of life
           - Physical: Taking care of our bodies is more than a good idea; it's the first step
             toward any kind of success.
           - Mental: Our thought lives are the soil from which our actions sprout, grow,
             and bear fruit - for better or for worse.
           - Emotional: Witht the right attitide, we can accomplish more than we ever
             dreamed. With the wrong attitude, we will ignore more opportunities than
             most people ever get.
           - Social: When we surround ourselves with trusted friends we benefit ourselves,
             and we give of ourselves to those we care about.
           - Spiritual: A relationship with God is the number one guarantee that once you
             make it into the winner's circle, you will enjoy being there.
