Physical nature, sexuality, death, self-esteem, anger, God’s gifts, dealing with evil, and the environment–these are just a few of the themes many pastors avoid when teaching children. Bucky Dann says pastors often believe that children are not capable of understanding these topics. In a flexible style that allows church leaders to adapt the idea to their own churches, Dann offers this wide-ranging resource for all who preach to children. He provides a strong basis for covering a variety of topics with children. Each unit has a suggested theme, object lesson, and dialogue to help children understand and grow in faith. He demonstrates proven techniques for communicating with children about subjects that are essential for all Christians.
Bucky Dann is Instructor of Sociology at Southwestern Community College in Sylvia, North Carolina.
