Inhaltsangabe

The author of the popular resource. Creating Children's Sermons, continues his efforts to communicate the message of faith to the youngest members of the church. Believing that adult faith -- or lack of faith -- is directly linked to childhood experiences. Bucky Dann discusses the importance of reaching children with the word of God, and including them in the church's worship and sacraments. The lessons in the book are organized around fourteen themes that profoundly affect all human beings: Introductions and Separations; Peace; Love of Self and Others; The Nature of God; The Nature of Jesus; The Meaning of Christmas; The Meaning of Easter; Responsibilities to Parents; Discipleship; Worship; Marriage; Covenants; Baptism; Communion. In each of the 54 lessons there is a statement about the theme, a Scripture reference, a teaching device, a statement of goals, and a brief description of technique. The lessons employ ideas and associations familiar to children. E.T., for example, is used to convey the idea of farewell; and a magnet demonstrates how God searches for those who are lost.
