Abstract

In one of his best-known songs, Bruce Cockburn sings about "lovers in a dangerous time." Well, there's no doubt that our world is under siege and that we are living in a dangerous time. With massive crises threatening life all over our planet â economic crises, social crises, ecological crises, the list goes on and on â our faith can't afford to ignore the reality of our diverse and fragile world. Our faith needs to move or inspire us to get our hands not just dirty, but downright bruised and bloody as we work against the tremendous forces of hatred, death, and suffering in our world.That's what this third volume in the "Faith Forward" series is about. It's about forming Christian "lovers" in the dangerous time in which we live. It's about dousing the flames of hatred and suffering in our world by pouring out unconditional, sacrificial love. It's about having rich and meaningful and difficult conversations about how we can do ministry with children, youth, and families in ways that have the power to heal the world. How can we empower children and youth to disrupt the world with God's love? How can we empower them to overturn the tables and shatter the walls, and to pour out compassion, and justice, and love in the world?

Abstract

Attract kids to church, the logic often goes, and you get parents in the pews. All that's left, then, is to get the kids out of the way. Here children's ministers David Csinos and Ivy Beckwith draw on research in human development and spiritual formation to show how children become disciples and churches become centers of lifelong discipleship. For too long, the local church has focused primarily on programs for children rather than ways of doing ministry with children. But in light of emerging missional movements, the church is changing and forming a new kind of ecclesial culture. And children's ministry must follow suit. Csinos and Beckwith propose a new way of thinking for these modern churches—they suggest that children can contribute to our theological understandings, as well as invest in and practice Biblical justice just like adult church members. Here is a unique resource that explores children's ministry in light of true spiritual formation and discipleship.
