Child Theology: Diverse Methods and Global Perspectives (Paperback)
Building on a range of sources, including Scripture, systematic theology, and the pastoral experiences of individuals and communities, Child Theology aims to strengthen the Church's commitment to children and offer new theological insights into central themes of the Christian faith, such as God, creation, theological anthropology, Christology, sin, salvation, faith, the Word, worship, sacraments, and eschatology.
