Let me first congratulate you on your new position as a "Sunday school teacher." You now have the opportunity to minister to the next generation of followers and leaders. I hope and pray that you do an awesome job.
So, now let's move on to the tips:
1. Keep the focus on God: Position means power used in the right way can be very useful. But, when we fill ourselves with pride (for example I did it, all about me me me) then it can lead to the downfall of your ministry work. Humble yourself and put God first and watch the blessing come down.
2. Read your Bible: The bible is filled with an abundance of knowledge and wisdom. Even till our last breath we still won't fully understand it. Never think you know everything cause you don't and won't. Ask for help if you don't know something about the bible.... it's okay trust me we all do.
3. Pray for those you teach: Pray for the children, youth or adults that you teach for their wellbeing, understanding, family and what God wants you to teach them.
4. Be yourself: Don't act like someone else instead be yourself. And teach what you like for example: if you love singing then do that......if you're not a crafty person then don't emphasize it so much.
5. It's okay if things don't work out according to our plans: Planned the most awesome lesson in the world or so you thought. Only to find it not going according to plan, yes it happens even to the well seasoned among us. Don't worry...….learn from your mistake and grow from there...….no one is perfect it'll be better next time.
