Growing in the life of faith is a seminal contribution to Christian education and practice. Writing for a Reformed perspective, Craig Dykstra provides us with an engaging collection of fundamental essays integrating theory and practice in a holistic proposal for addressing the spiritual loaning of our age.
For Christian educators this book is going to mark the end of the Lawrence Kohlberg era in moral education and open up a fresh understanding of how repentance, prayer, and service nourish moral development. The author emphasizes the role of religious education in the development of moral character.
