Faith, Hope, and Love Teaching and learning can be grounded in Christian theology. What If Learning expresses this in terms of faith, hope, and love. What If Learning: Connecting Christian Faith and Teaching

Faith Is... an attitude of trust in God; what is believed about God, the world, others, and myself (beliefs/doctrines, creeds); a commitment to God and others; and a faithful way of life that flows from these beliefs, attitudes, and commitments. What If Learning: Connecting Christian Faith and Teaching

Hope Is... a confidence in God and his promises; confidence that, in Christ, Good is stronger than evil; love is stronger than hate; light is stronger than darkness; life is stronger than death (Bishop Desmond Tutu); and the basis of an optimistic but realistic lifestyle that is good news for today and hope for tomorrow. What If Learning: Connecting Christian Faith and Teaching

Love Is... a deep feeling and attachment to God and others; an act of will and a choice about how we live; a move from self-centeredness to seeking the well- being of others; and Gods character: God is love (1 John 4:8b). What If Learning: Connecting Christian Faith and Teaching

Umbrella Terms Faith, hope, and love cover a wide range of beliefs, attitudes and behaviors. People can grow in faith, hope, and love as they develop spiritually. It is an ongoing process, so we have expressed them as movements: Toward respect and reverence Toward love and forgiveness What If Learning: Connecting Christian Faith and Teaching

Progressing in faith, hope, and love Progress is a continuous movement. The Bible talks of change as both the work of the Holy Spirit and effort on our part. The Apostle Paul describes the change as daily putting on the clothes from Gods wardrobe. Those clothes include love, patience, humility, and gentleness.
