Dr. June Hetzel

Teachers are at risk for burnout, more than most other professions; hence, teachers need protective spiritual disciplines to enhance their physical, spiritual, and emotional well-being. We will explore why rest, retreat, Sabbath, and solitude are essential disciplines for educators to flourish as God designed. Christian educators will gain insight into the common threads of spiritual experiences in the classrooms of Christian educators worldwide.
