Session
Summit Kick-Off: Rise Up Renewed + Q&A with Francis Chan
with Francis Chan of Crazy Love
Friday, Oct 22 @ 8:00pm EST
When David faced his most difficult defeat and his men were about to stone him, Scripture records that “David strengthened himself in the Lord his God” (1 Sam 30:5). After a year and a half of pandemic- related challenges, we need to be renewed and find strength in God as educators. Come be encouraged and challenged by pastor, missionary, and author Francis Chan who will help us to Rise Up Renewed in Christ.
The session will begin 8:00pm EST on Friday, October 22. Please click this button to join us at that time:

I have only watched 3 episodes so far! but what a gift from God!!! I wasn’t going to attend due to all the other demands on my life right now but I felt drawn to it and the ad kept popping up – so I looked at it and signed up for the freebie but ended up buying this years and last years!!! And I already can’t wait for next years!
Appreciated the encouragement in what Francis shared! Thank you!
I don’t understand where we leave feedback for the sessions?
Hi Monica! Here’s the link to leave feedback: https://riseupchristianeducators.com/feedback
I am making a commitment to be in the Word daily. Francis Chan teaches with so much passion. My internet connection was not the best and it kept freezing up during the live broadcast so I plan on watching it again.
The passion Francis had is something I want to show family,friends, staf, f and students. I am fired up!
For me, this seminar was a call to discover how great is the New Covenant and the value of the people around me. Today I decided to invest more in the next generation.
Good reminder to strengthen myself in God’s Word daily.
Pass it on to the next generation.
I enjoyed hearing Francis Chan. Very timely and needed!
I am so encouraged by Ps.Francis’ first session! He spoke about getting into the word of God daily, being strengthened by going into God’s presence. Being a teacher can be really exhausting and also at the same time we want to share the light of Christ. So first session has truly encouraged me and is a great reminder.
This first session has been so powerful! I was encouraged and given practical ways to live my faith. I love that reminder that David strengthened himself in the Lord. When we aren’t feeling the joy that we need, we just need to get away and strengthen ourselves in Him.
I so appreciate Francis’s humility, frankness, and encouragement. He is a man who lives the word of God and encourages others to do the same. I actually loved that his daughter was in an out of the frame at the beginning:)
So convicting. I want more time in the word. My heart longs for Jesus. But I am so tired. Spread so thin. I can only offer my broken life to him. It’s a very hard season for me. I desperately need renewal. Praying that for all of you.
Where two or three are gathered He is in the midst of us! There were 500! He is with us. I believe we are all struggling to some extent with exhaustion and overwhelmed! Let’s lift each other up in prayer for the Lord Jesus to strengthen us!
How can I ( I am from Hindu Background)sustain my faith in Christ as an Educator? I feel depressed when I see others those who are not believers . They are more successful than me .
Prakash, Do not compare yourself to other teachers or unbelievers! The success you have will not necessarily be visible in this world, but in the spiritual world. God is with you. He sees your efforts and will reward you in His time. Be patient and believe. Trust in God. He will bring you His rewards in His timing.
