A Light in the Darkness: Bible Study for Children and Teens

En savoir plus sur le livre

Through her faithful study of Scripture, Bethany shows how any layperson with the ability to read can teach children--even as the adults themselves are learning--while avoiding the pitfalls of interpretation and theological speculation. Teaching, she explains, is as simple as defining words, following the plot, identifying characters, looking up historical facts, and, most importantly, sticking to the text. Parents should read the stories of the Bible to their children without comment. "Narration," Bethany explains, "teaches children submission to the story." I hasten to add that her book challenges parents to do the same. That Bethany takes this directive seriously is evident in her insightful exegesis of various passages.
