The answer runs deeper than timing or technique. While approaches abound, many aren’t rooted in good theology. That’s why \u003ci\u003eChildren Belong in Worship\u003c\/i\u003e is an essential resource for today’s ministry leaders: It illuminates both the “why” and the “how” of including children in worship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawing on Scripture, theology, theory, and years of ministry experience, the authors build a compelling theological rationale (the “why”) that gives rise to concrete, practical recommendations (the “how”) for drawing children into fuller participation. The result is a rich, robust approach to worship that forms faith across generations and values every voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book offers help and hope to a wide range of readers: those who love the idea of intergenerational worship but are unsure where to start, those who worry that their current approach is too scattershot, those who feel disillusioned by previous efforts that haven’t borne fruit, and more. Its ecumenical, nonprescriptive approach invites readers of any tradition to adapt the book’s ideas for their own congregation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePastors and ministry leaders will come away ready to reshape worship so children can truly take part. Parents will develop new perspectives on worshiping alongside their children. And seminary professors will find a rich catalyst for classroom discussion. Encouraging and empowering, \u003ci\u003eChildren Belong in Worship\u003c\/i\u003e is a must read for anyone who cares about children’s place in the life of the church.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jennifer Reinsch Schroeder","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53779800031343,"sku":"9780802886361","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/4799\/8831\/files\/9780802886361.jpg?v=1783924148","url":"https:\/\/cart.presswarehouse.com\/products\/children-belong-in-worship","provider":"Books International","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
