Helping Our Children Grow In Faith: How The Church Can Nurture The Spiritual Development Of Kids
Ebooks Online

Children have serious faith questions that require serious answers, answers that adults often find themselves under-prepared to give. But the Christian community has a responsibility to help its children develop a three-dimensional faith--a faith that affects their heads, their hearts, and their spirits.Helping Our Children Grow in Faith is designed for children's ministry and worship leaders, Sunday school teachers, and pastors--as well as parents--who want to nurture the spiritual development of the children in their lives. It shows how to integrate children into congregational worship, how to teach them the Bible but leave room for the mystery of God, and how to distinguish the difference between faith development and moral development.

Robert Keeley serves a local church in children's ministry; in addition he serves on the faculty of a Christian university. So he not only teaches, he practices: His learning comes from experience as well as a lifetime of study and research."Helping Our Children Grow in Faith" is an excellent new resource for all who serve in children's ministry: VBS, Sunday School, pastors and staff, plus volunteers. The book takes the process of faith development (see Robert Fowler and others) and applies this learning to children and their process of growth. A helpful integration: Keeley is a skilled teacher.Clearly written and immediately useful, this book deserves a place on the shelf of anyone who works with children, and who cares about faith formation and value-based learning.Five stars!Dr. David FrisbieThe Center for Marriage & Family StudiesAuthor of Raising Great Kids on Your Own: A Guide and Companion for Every Single Parent
