Being a teacher has always been a career with both great rewards and great challenges, but when the global pandemic hit in 2020, everything changed. In this episode, we talk with Ashton Langley, an elementary school teacher here in NC, about the ways teaching is a mission field. We talk about how teaching has changed through the years, how parents and people outside the school system can be a support, and the ways God is working right now in the field of education. When we begin to view teaching and our schools as a mission field, it will open the door for us to serve God and serve people in unending ways.

Things we mention in this episode:

• The Couch Potato (children's book)

• Ashton's Amazon Teacher Wish-list

• The Tiny House Teacher (Ashton's online store for teacher resources)
