THE EDUNIA EXPERIENCE

Martina Van Norden self-published this revelatory book in 2019 to encourage and enlighten others to the process of living in your purpose. After becoming disheartened by the injustice and inequities of the educational system, she applied Christian principles to heal and wrote the book from the perspective of faith and hope.

The book was a representation of her passion and God’s divine purpose to be a community voice that brings people together to take action and civically engage. With a rekindled passion for education, Martina offered a faith-focused purpose-driven narrative to education. The Edunia Experience was written as a manual to a movement to TEACH PURPOSE.

The Edunia Experience: Master Teacher Lessons in Birthing A Generation of Purpose.” was a faith-centered work  sharing the experiences of a teacher called to address issues of education equity and justice professionally with application of Biblical principles. The book serves as as a manual for leaders that want to influence public education.  Rendition: The Edunia Experience is the second edition and will be published June 2024.

“It takes ordinary people to do extraordinary things. But when life’s struggles and experiences are misunderstood and misappropriated, we tend to become content with mediocrity and far too accepting of the unacceptable.

This book is the product of many ordinary, yet accomplished, days in the teaching profession coupled with extraordinary disappointments experienced in my search for purpose.”
