Wisdom and passing wisdom on to others is mentioned many times throughout the Bible. Teachers are the special people in your life that bring this wisdom to you from when you are very young until now. If you are a teacher then you are engaged in training your students the wisdom of the Word of God.
Although you may not be in the position to teach directly from the Bible, the principles of the Bible can be modeled every day. It is important to not only educate your children in different subject, but also in God.
