This latest addition to the Sure Foundations series provides an introduction to the topic of children’s spirituality. It offers guidance about the choices made in churches and homes that can stimulate or stifle a child’s spiritual development.
Written by a leading expert in the field, and mixing theoretical background and ‘good practice’ tips, it focuses on:
· Childhood as a natural source of spirituality
· Ways to help children value and express their spirituality
· The role of Christian nurture and worship in early spiritual development.
'A brilliant mix of thought provoking theology and challenging practical applications. It has changed how I see children and church.'
- Ben Mizen, Youth and Children’s Work Adviser, Diocese of Portsmouth
'A powerful reaffirmation and exploration of the importance of childhood spirituality for the ministry and mission of the church, which will be welcomed by all working in this field.' - Alister McGrath
