Challenges and strategies in education are also addressed. Peter emphasizes student-driven learning, parental involvement, and respecting student individuality. He shares anecdotes illustrating the importance of adapting to different learning styles and addressing student needs with empathy. The discussion shifts to the resurgence of coding education and Cancode's initiatives to support teachers and the tech workforce. Peter expresses concern about slow adoption rates and traditional mindsets within educational institutions. Looking ahead, Peter and Chris acknowledge the need for a significant shift in education, including introducing computational thinking and AI at early stages. They recognize the challenges of implementing such changes and the impact of rapid technological change across various sectors. The conversation explores the value of coding education beyond job training, emphasizing cognitive development and fostering curiosity. They discuss project-based learning and the importance of a strong driving question. The potential and pitfalls of integrating generative AI tools into education are also explored, highlighting the need for responsible policy development.

He sees a potential benefit in a new requirement for all students to take a technological education course. Chris acknowledges the changing views towards university education and the value of vocational training. The episode concludes with a focus on student-led learning and "intentional serendipity," where teachers guide rather than dictate the curriculum. They discuss the importance of personalized learning and fostering a welcoming and inclusive educational environment.

A healthy small group ministry is a crucial part of the American church today--especially for larger churches. As we grow in our faith, we all need a smaller group of friends where we can study Scripture and laugh, as well as be there for each other during hard seasons. Small groups can often provide that space, but building a healthy ministry takes a lot of work and intentionality.Today our guest Joe Skillen shares some big picture ideas of how to lead small groups, but we also get into the details about how to choose a study, how often you should meet, pros and cons of open/closed groups, and much more. Whether your church already has a groups ministry or you're looking to start one soon, take advantage of this helpful insight from Joe! (And stick around to the end to get his hot takes on the NBA free agent season.)

On January 6th, 2021, when right wing supporters of Donald Trump staged an insurrection at the US Capitol building, they were participating in a long tradition of conservative rebellion with its roots in the West. Dr. James Skillen, associate professor of environmental studies at Calvin University, traces those roots in his new book, This Land is My Land: Rebellion in the West (Oxford University Press, 2020).  By the late 20th century, the Bureau of Land Management owned and managed huge swaths of some western states. Skillen argues that change in the regulatory environment, with a new emphasis on ecosystem and wildlife management beginning in the 1970s, combined with a groundswell of conservative support to foment armed rebellion against perceived government overreach among ranchers, small-time miners, and other western resource users.  When Ammon Bundy and his family staged a takeover of the Malheur Wildlife Refuge in eastern Oregon in 2014, it was just the latest episode in a series of rebellions across the West, some involving the Bundys themselves, in which federal officials exchanged gunfire with armed Western rebels. In many ways, argues Skillen, Trump’s election in 2016, built on votes in places like Michigan and Pennsylvania, was the culmination of a story that begins in the American West.

S2E7 | Dedicatoria(istas)! Poetic Exchange Among Trans-Hemispheric Latinas

C19: America in the 19th Century

This podcast explores the Spanish-language dedication poems of nineteenth-century Latinas who exchanged verses in and across the borders of the United States. These verses stage conversations that tease out definitions of femininity and creative expression between women in the public space of the Spanish-language press, and thus before an audience of silent, male interlocutors. Sarah Skillen discusses the Cuban poet Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda and her 1846 poem “Contestando a otro de una señorita” [“Ballad Answering Another by a Young Lady”]. She and Vanessa Ovalle Perez then turn to an exchange of dedicatorias between the Panamanian poet Amelia Denis and San Francisco poet Carlota Gutierrez, which was printed from 1875 through 1876 in San Salvador and Los Angeles. Of particular interest is how these women participated in a growing, transnational network of poetisas writing to and for one other. This podcast also includes readings of these nineteenth-century dedicatorias in Spanish and in translation, performed respectively by the contemporary poets Liana Bravo, Lucy Cristina Chau, and Vanessa Angélica Villarreal. These readings are mobilized as a collaboration and performative dialogue between Latinas of past and present and between languages, Spanish and English. Episode produced by Vanessa Ovalle Perez, Sarah Skillen, Christine “Xine” Yao, and Matthew Teutsch. These poems in the original Spanish and translations by Perez and Skillen will be made available on the C19 website

Byron Borger Talks Books -- on Politics & More

If you love books, there is nothing better than talking books with Byron Borger. Byron has been talking books almost his whole life, and doing it well and for the good of Christ's kingdom. Since the early 80's, he and his wife Beth have, through Hearts and Minds Books in Dallastown, PA, lived out a mission to see the body of Christ encouraged and the world around them flourish. They believe that ideas matter and that books are an important part of Christian discipleship-- "a disciple is learner, after all," says Byron. Whether you're in his store, on the phone with him, or at one of the many conferences at which he and Beth serve, it is always a treat to talk books with Byron. We hope that this podcast gives you at least a taste of what that's like. Cross & Gavel host Mike Schutt wondered what books Byron would recommend during this crazy political season, and he and Byron spend some time talking about Byron's work, books in general, and books on politics. As usual, Byron is knowledgable, helpful, and light-hearted as he tosses out nearly 30 great recommendations on the topics of politics, vocation, leadership, and more. The conversation ranges widely, from Jamie Smith to CS Lewis; from Os Guinness to Katelyn Beaty; from James Skillen to Yuval Levin.  Join Mike and Byron as they talk books and books on politics. Then order a few of them from Hearts & Minds!  To subscribe to Byron's Booknotes Blog, click here. Mike Schutt is the host of Cross & Gavel, and he directs both Law Student Ministries and Attorney Ministries for the Christian Legal Society. He is an Associate Professor at Regent University School of Law. Meet Byron and Beth in person (and Mike, too!) at the Christian Legal Society National Conference, October 20-23 in Washington, DC.

Jim Skillen directed the Center for Public Justice from 1981 through 2009, and served as a senior fellow on sabbatical from October 1, 2009, through June 30, 2010. Now retired from the Center, Skillen is engaged in full-time writing, mentoring, and speaking on political thought, statecraft, and public policy. His major writing project is focused on the biblical story as foundation for the human responsibility of governance in God's world; the challenge that story presents to the ways Christians have exercised political responsibility from earliest times to the present; and the profound resources of that story for the continuing work of governance, citizenship, and statecraft in our day.
