Discover how to shape tomorrow’s teachers through a thoughtful blend of pedagogy and faith.

This classic work argues that teaching is a creative, transformative act. It explains how a teacher can bridge universal truths with concrete classroom practice, guiding students to grow in knowledge, character, and will. From the role of the teacher in civilization to practical methods for developing will, culture, and service, it offers foundational ideas for Sunday-school educators and secular teachers alike.

Grounded in the author’s experience, the book emphasizes that education should be more than delivering facts. It should cultivate the inner life of learners, align instruction with meaningful aims, and train the will to act with purpose in daily life.

How to view teaching as a creative, future-oriented act rather than a mere transmission of information.
Guidance on linking subject matter to the growing needs and capabilities of learners.
Strategies for developing character, conviction, and a settled will to live out learned ideals.
Examples and questions that help teachers evaluate their methods and progress.

Ideal for teachers seeking a thoughtful framework for religious and secular education alike, this edition invites readers to reflect on their purpose, approach, and impact.
