Encounter Christianity brings together strong visual images with a series of intriguing, open-ended questions that help develop children“s spiritual awareness and encourage a creative response to the central themes of Christianity.

In Encounter Christianity - In Questions about Jesus children are introduced to key stories from the life of Jesus. They are encouraged to think about the importance of the stories at the time and reflect on their relevance for today. This book links to the “big“ book Encounter Christianity - To Change the World, and to two other small books, Encounter Christianity - In Words about Jesus, and In Journeys about Jesus.

Suitable for use by schools and Sunday schools for children aged 7-11, the series supports RE teaching at Key Stage 2 (with a natural progression from the Key Stage 1 series); includes teacher notes that provide background, practical ideas and Bible texts; and provides creative resources to support QCA Schemes of Work for RE.
