Introducing Child Theology
| Category | None |
| Copyright Owner | Compassion International |
This course provides an introduction to the theological foundations of holistic child development. It is intended to provide biblical and theological foundations that shape and inform students' approach to their own lives and ministries in relation to children. Rather than seeing children in light of what should be done to and for them, this course informs people on how to see children in the light of their rightful place and key role in fulfilling God's mission and purpose. This course allows church leaders, missions professors, strategists, and leaders and workers in child and youth ministries from all over the world to begin to read Scripture with "the child in mind". This in turn shapes the ways people working through this material are approaching ministry to children while providing a wealth of information on children's roles in ministry. This material is suitable for young adults and older (ages 18+) and is a downloadable book in PDF format.
