📖 Micah 6:8 — “What does the Lord require of you? To act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.”

What happens when students think you don’t care about quality — that “anything” is enough?

In this episode, I share a story from my classroom about balancing mercy with high expectations.

Together, we’ll reflect on what it means to act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly as teachers who want to build confidence in our students without slipping into complacency.
