Description
Will Our Children Have Faith? Third Revised Edition explores the state of Christian education over the past forty years. John H. Westerhoff examines how religious education is currently delivered, often relegating faith formation to Sunday morning classes.
Westerhoff argues that this approach fails to nurture and nourish children's faith, instead only teaching them facts about religion. He reflects on his own role in Christian education and offers a new perspective on the importance of guiding faith formation within families, churches, and schools.
This revised edition includes Westerhoff's updated thoughts on the evolution of Christian education and its impact on children's spiritual growth. A thought-provoking critique of current practices, Will Our Children Have Faith? is an important contribution to the discussion on Christian education and faith formation.
