Offering the Gospel to Children by Gretchen Wolff Pritchard
Church education programs for children often substitute children's Bibles for Holy Scripture and simple moralism for imagination. Gretchen Wolff Pritchard shows how to offer the gospel imaginatively to children, with practical ideas on children's worship, liturgy, drama, pastoral care, and study of the Bible. The final chapter includes an exhaustive annotated bibliography of children's books for the parish library, and resources for parents and teachers.
Pritchard provides an encompassing vision for bringing our children up in the Gospel while refusing to substitute "simple moralism for imagination" * Deeper Walk *
