<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Church scholars, from varying denominational backgrounds, discuss four, basic, common beliefs about children's spiritual formation with the goal of determining which is most scripturally sound.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i><p>Perspectives on Children's Spiritual Formation </i>presents in counterpoint form four views of children's spiritual formation and four related methods of Christian Education. Each chapter is written by a prominent person(s) representing his or her view. Contributors also respond to the other viewpoints. Views include the contemplative-reflective model (cultivating a quiet, worshipful spirit), instructional-analytic model (involving child evangelism and Bible memorization), pragmatic participatory model (focusing on high-energy activities, often seen in mega-churches), and the media-driven active-engagement model (using a video-based curriculum with limited teacher training).</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b><p>Michael J. Anthony </b>is professor of Christian Education at Biola University/Talbot School of Theology and has served as a visiting professor of Christian Education at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.
