Use password ´jakewiens’Jake Wiens has worked as a teacher for most of his career: seven years as an elementary school teacher in Williams Lake public school system and 21 years at Cedars Christian School in Prince George. Here he taught a variety of high school courses and served as well as teacher - librarian in the K-12 library. Of interest would be the many school trips he made with Grade 11-12 students both to Mexico (building homes for the poor and children’s Bible Day clubs for street kids). He also led the annual class trip for the Grade 11 class to Vancouver East side. The purpose of these trips was primarily to help young people develop roots for their faith and gain added life perspective for the decision-making years ahead. He took a break from teaching after the 7-year stint in Williams Lake to work in Germany as a church pastor assistant. These overseas years did help develop greater perspective in understanding our own cultural moment.
Jake retired in 2014, spent the next season of his life building their retirement home in Prince George. During this same time, he authored a book to provide some answers for the question as to why the church and Christian school community continues to lose so many young people to the faith after they have left the safety of the Christian School and the church youth groups. Life’s Ultimate Questions: Exploring the Stories that Shape our Everyday This book has since been revised and is available on his website.
As a culture watcher Jake is keenly aware of the critical cultural moment we are in. The foundations of our country are being eroded at an alarming rate. The Christian foundations created such a great advantage for this country and western culture. His passion is to speak truth to culture; only truth can restore the fortunes of our country. Running as a candidate for the Christian Heritage Party was just a natural fit.
Jake Wiens is married and together they have raised 4 sons. All are doing well in career, family, and faith.
