A lot of teachers try to disguise learning as fun. But 2003 Alumna Heidi Bruder has taken it to a whole new level.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Faced with the challenge of making online learning as fun and engaging as her interactive middle school classroom, Heidi dug deep for ideas. Really. She rooted around in a costume bin and before long she was showing up in teaching videos as a pirate and a mad scientist.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Friends and neighbors gave her more costumes and with some creative makeup, she came to online class as Hulk Hogan, Yoda, a Picasso painting, and a ventriloquist\u2019s dummy, among many other fun characters.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For Heidi, it was one more example of trusting in the Lord and watching Him show up in an incredible way. From running on a national championship cross country team after she had given up running to forming a close bond with a middle schooler who intimidated her, she has seen Jesus meet her in amazing ways over and over again.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

And, most amazing of all, is how the Lord has revealed himself as her loving, committed Father. There\u2019s no disguising how much that means to Heidi.<\/span><\/p>\n
