Résumé : |
“Will Our Children Have Faith? was first published in 1976. It was intended to be solely a ‘tract for our times’ but whether our children will have faith is still the question about which I worry. It is a question that implies looking at many factors: the historical, social, and cultural context in which we live; our understanding of the Christian life of faith; our understanding of how persons acquire their world views, values, and lifestyles; and our ability to be the sort of community that can nurture and nourish such understandings.” —John Westerhoff
This new revised edition includes Westerhoff’s overview on the state of Christian education over the past forty years and his role in that history. Featuring a study guide by Christian formation specialist Sharon Pearson, it offers fresh perspectives and insight for those who know the subject area well, while remaining the foundational text for a new generation of readers—from parents to seminarians to practitioners. |
