As a teacher of Adult Bible Study Curriculum one of the most difficult yet most important parts of my job is to have patience. I love the material we are talking about and enjoy studying it. Often though people do not undedrstand the things I am teaching as quickly as I would like them too. You have probably found yourself in this same situation from time to time. It is very easy to become frustrated and ask yourself why people can not learn or what their problem is. This is where patience becomes key. You have to slow down and first examine yourself. Could you communitcate or illustrate the point a little differently. You also have to remember that the people in your group have not studied the material in the Adult Bible Study Curriculum as much as you have. Many times we have known things for so long that we forget we had to learn them at some point just like the people in our class do. I know teaching is not always as rewarding and easy as we would like it to be. But if you will be patient it will all work out in the end.
