Send us a textHave you ever wondered why prayer sometimes feels routine, awkward, or empty--even when you're trying your best?In this message, we begin a new series called "Teach My Heart to Pray." We look at the moment when the disciples watched Jesus pray and finally said, "Lord, teach us to pray." Instead of giving them a script, Jesus began shaping their hearts.This sermon explores what it means to slow down, listen, and let Jesus teach us how to live close to the Father--not by praying harder, but by becoming more teachable.Whether you've prayed your whole life or you feel like you're still figuring it out, this episode offers hope, honesty, and an invitation to draw closer.Here are the messages in this series;Teach Me to ListenTeach Me to AskTeach Me to GiveLinkoln shares his story on why he started coming to Ravenna Church of the Nazarene and shares why you should consider doing the same.Ravenna Church of the Nazarene530 Main Street, Ravenna, KY 40472Support the showThe Dirt Path Sermon Podcast is a place for real sermons that speak to real life.

On this week's Teach Me, Teacher we sit down with Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath — neuroscientist, educator, and author — to dive deep into one of the most urgent debates in education today: the role of technology in schools. All of the discussion items in this episode are inspired by and directed by Jared's latest book: The Digital Delusion: How Classroom Technology Harms Our Kids' Learning — And How To Help Them Thrive Again — check it out here. In this powerful conversation, Jared breaks down the myth of educational technology. His new book takes a rigorous, research-grounded view of why digital tools — once hailed as revolutionary — often fail to deliver on their promises and can actually hinder real learning. Jared and I explore how technology went from a supplemental tool to a central feature of classrooms. Fueled by optimism, investment, and the idea that digital tools automatically mean innovation, schools adopted laptops, tablets, apps, and AI — often without deep evidence that these tools improve learning. Drawing on decades of cognitive research, Jared explains how digital distraction — from multitasking to constant notifications — can disrupt memory, attention, and deep thinking. These are the very processes that real learning depends on. Rather than simply adding more tech, we talked about what happens when schools put teachers, relationships, and focused engagement back at the center of learning. Jared makes the case that most student-facing screens should be phased out — not because technology is inherently bad, but because its dominant role undermines learning outcomes and critical thinking skills We also cover what better education actually looks like: classrooms where print media, discussion, reflection, and deep practice take priority — and where technology serves only highly specific, evidence-based purposes rather than driving instruction. As schools grapple with stagnant achievement, reduced attention spans, and rising concerns about student well-being, this episode challenges the assumption that more technology equals better learning. It's time for educators, parents, and policy makers to rethink the role of ed tech — and that starts with honest conversations like this one. Check out our previous discussion on the podcast here.
Send us a textMark's Gospel culminates in the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This episode traces how the suffering of Christ fulfills Old Testament Scripture, including Psalm 22, and reveals the substitution at the heart of the Gospel as Barabbas is released and Jesus is condemned. As the centurion confesses, “Truly this man was the Son of God,” we are called to respond to the risen Christ who goes before His disciples, just as He promised.Support the showStay engaged with new and up-to-date content, including newsletters, articles, podcasts, etc. Download the Teach Me the Bible App from any app store or Apple TV/Roku device.

Hello everyone! If you have listened to the podcast for a significant amount of time, you have probably heard me talk about how my son is autistic. It has been a journey, for sure, but something that has been helpful along the way has been all of the great educators who have supported him and his needs. With that said, I couldn't be more excited to bring my talk with Melinda Arnost to you. She is the author of the upcoming book, Empowering Inclusion, and a passionate educator. Melinda is exactly the kind of educator we love to have on Teach Me, Teacher: passionate, innovative, and deeply in love with the work it takes to serve all students.

In this heartfelt new episode of Teach Me, Teacher, we sit down with Josh Monroe—the inspiring 5th-grade teacher behind the TikTok sensation @mrmonroeandnala, where he shares heartwarming and thought-provoking classroom moments alongside his therapy dog, Nala TikTok (though things have changed). Josh is also the co-host of the acclaimed podcast What the World Needs Now, where he and fellow educator Tom Whisinnand explore what keeps teachers motivated while uplifting educator voices from around the world. Together, we explore the concept of “hidden standards”—the unspoken social expectations like listening empathetically, speaking kindly, and treating one another with respect. Josh shares why teaching content is only half the job and introduces audiences to classroom strategies that embed social-skill building into everyday teaching. Expect practical ideas for cultivating empathy, communication, and ethical behavior—because growing good humans matters as much as grade-level success. Educators and parents, get ready to learn how to turn your classroom or home into a place where kindness is just as important as curriculum—and then some. Tune in now to reframe how we teach, how children learn to engage, and how we all build better communities, one conversation at a time. If you'd like to hear his previous episode, click here.

Welcome to Season X of Teach Me, Teacher—the podcast that refuses to stay silent while public education is under attack. This season, we stand shoulder to shoulder with teachers, parents, and communities across the nation, fighting back against the tech giants, profiteers, and bad actors who want to see our schools shuttered, our classrooms emptied, and our children turned into data points. They want kids to learn from screens, not people. From algorithms, not relationships. They want to strip the soul from education so they can monetize it. But we won't let them. On Teach Me, Teacher, we believe in the power of real educators, real communities, and real learning. Join us as we expose the threats, elevate voices on the frontlines, and champion the future of public education—one episode at a time.
Birth doesn't have to be something to fear. I sat down with Lana from Girl, Teach Me to talk about seeing labor as a God-designed process, not an emergency. We covered choosing the right midwife, why changing your mindset around pain is so powerful, and how to respond to people who think you are choosing home birth to get a “trophy”. Whether it's your first baby or your fifth, this episode is full of honest, empowering wisdom for walking into birth with peace! In this episode, we cover: Lana's story: how a college nutrition class sparked her love for birth and led to Girl, Teach Me Birth as normal— not an emergency to fear, but a process designed by God The faith walk of birth that requires releasing control and trusting God each time, no matter the number Choosing your birth team wisely and why the right midwife makes all the difference Power moves and fear tactics— recognizing red flags in medical care Labor predictions that miss the mark: baby size, dilation, and due dates that don't actually mean much A new perspective on pain: working with your body instead of resisting it Birth prep that actually helps: Bradley Method, Ina May, and positive birth stories The realities of the first-time birth and why it often takes longer and feels more intense Things that can go wrong— why skilled midwives know when to transfer, and how most situations are calm and non-emergent How to prepare for postpartum experiences like afterbirth cramps, recovery, and what actually helps (or doesn't) Thoughts on free birth— being prepared either way, but personally valuing the peace of a midwife's presence How Lana included her older children in her birth and what it meant to her daughters Why home birth just makes sense for outcomes, comfort, and family flow Pushing back on comparison— birth choices aren't competitions, and excellence isn't judgment Lana's heart behind creating content for new moms through YouTube, blogging, and her course View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.
