A Tennessee substitute teacher was reportedly fired for showing a Rick Warren video in class. One News Now reports Mary Simms had been filling in for a 10th grade English class at Collierville High School for nearly one month when she was asked not to return to the school.
Simms had shown a TED Talk in class featuring Christian pastor Rick Warren entitled “A life of purpose.” In the talk, Warren explains what he did after his book “The Purpose Driven Life” climbed the bestseller list and he suddenly gained fame and fortune.
