In die kerk is daar baie geleenthede waar onderrig gegee word en geleer word. Daarom is dit belangrik om kennis te neem dat die fokus moet wegskuif vanaf die een wat onderrig gee na die leerder.
Wayne Floyd deel tien lesse wat hy in die verband geleer het:
1. The move from a subject- and teacher-centered model toward a process- and learner-centered approach is harder than one might think.
2. Consequently, “continuing education”—being taught more by more teachers—became a less helpful label for what I did than the phrase “lifelong learning.”
3. Learning how we learn is about shifting from subject-oriented education to person-oriented learning. Teacher expertise, in this view, yields to learner readiness.
4. Continuing education leads us to know something different; lifelong learning assumes that we will be someone different as a result of the process.
5. We hardly ever learn the most important things alone; we learn in community, in relationship, in conversation with those who often are those most different from us.
6. The whole process of lifelong learning applies to many congregational leaders, especially clergy, not just when they themselves are in the role of student, but also when they take up the role of teacher and educator for their congregations.
7. It is but a small step forward to conceive of both the teacher and learner as having things to give and receive in a process of mutuality.
8. For congregational leaders, a learner-centered approach to ongoing education also means an important shift in the way that we seek to have that learning validated.
9. Learning for leadership requires not just the long view of a lifetime but the broad view of the whole range of contexts where that learning best takes place.
10. Whatever our vocation, learning that matters always involves the deepening of our capacities not just of the head but of heart and hands as well.

Kan ‘n mens regtig dan nog van die kansel af staan en preek?
As leerders leer deur persoonsgerigte take en groepwerk en saamgesels, moet ons nie ophou met die eenrigting-lesings vanaf die preekstoel nie?
Jy leer slegs as jy aktief nuwe neuronverbindingsnetwerke skep; nie as jy passief in ‘n kerksaal sit en gaap nie.
Of hoe?
