About this eBook
A realistic, straight-forward approach to exploring one's faith and doubts, and talking with the next generation about important spiritual issues.
A child's spiritual pilgrimage begins from the earliest moments of life and is shaped by the significant adults in the child's ever-expanding world. Yet often adults have an inadequate or unclear understanding of their faith, and are unsure how to impart their own Christian beliefs to their children in a credible and meaningful way.
Oppenheimer offers guidance for adults who seek ways, for themselves and for their children, to "live with the questions" with a faithful openness and deep sincerity. She presents the possibilities for adults to "become as little children" in their faith, without naivete, and for children to "grow in wisdom and stature," without the need for dogmatic certainties.
An encouraging book for those who face the challenge of living out the Christian commitment--of maintaining the balance of being true to Christ while being true to one's self and one's children.
