Excitement is in the air at Generous Classroom! Here’s the big news — Generous Classroom has the distinct privilege of partnering with Dr. Tyler Groves. He and Dr. Kenneth Coley have launched their new book, Growing with One Another Social & Emotional Learning in Christian Perspective. Because we love being generous, we are thrilled to share Chapter 1 and our most recent webinar with you!
A Foundation That’s Always Been There
Christian schools have long been at the forefront of teaching SEL — though it was often called “character development." Now, with the insights of Groves and Coley, this book not only highlights the rich tradition of Christian education but also offers a solid foundation for why Christian schools should teach biblical social-emotional learning. It’s a reminder that Biblical SEL is not something to fear but rather a vital tool for furthering God’s work in our classrooms and hearts.
Think about this: What if, instead of viewing SEL as something secular or separate from faith, we saw it as an opportunity to deepen our students' understanding of how God designed them? Biblical SEL acknowledges that we are emotional beings because we’re made in the image of a relational and loving God.
An Invitation to Grow Together
At Generous Classroom, we offer one of the first-ever biblically-immersed SEL curriculums for grades K-8. Our program is designed to empower Christian schools to safely teach a curriculum that aligns with their values and mission. We are honored to be part of the growing movement of biblical SEL in education.
By partnering with Dr. Tyler Groves, administrators, educators, parents, and students, we are not just shaping the future of classrooms worldwide — we are charting new waters in integrating biblical SEL, helping students grow into the people God has designed them. Our curriculum equips teachers to empower their students to live lives of love and Generosity. Together, we are fostering a generation that reflects God’s love and wisdom in every area of life. We are paving the way for a future where biblical SEL is foundational in an education where students thrive emotionally, spiritually, and academically.
We couldn’t be more excited to partner with Dr. Tyler Groves to bring the practice of biblical SEL to schools worldwide! Head over to the Generous Classroom Educator Portal to see the webinar we just held with Dr. Tyler Groves and download Chapter 1 while you are there!
