Life-Changing Thoughts on the Ministry to Children and on Children (Vol. 1)

par Zacharias T. Fomum

Every revival that lasts more than a generation was, somewhere along the line, a children’s ministry. This book exists because its author believed that with unusual seriousness. What the reader holds is not a manual of methods but a collection of verdicts—short, dated, quotable—on the whole world of the child: the power of a parent’s blessing and the tragedy of a parent’s curse; the folly of ministries that feed sheep and forget lambs; the qualifications of those who would lead the young; the duties children themselves owe to God and to their parents; and the practical needs—people, prayer, provision—of a ministry the Church habitually underfunds and undervalues. The one-thought-per-page format is an invitation to slow reading. Parents will find pages here that read them; ministers of children will find their job description raised beyond recognition; and children old enough to read will find themselves addressed with a dignity most adults never offer them. Volume One of a series that deserves to run long—and to be obeyed.
