Talking to Children About God

Description

The big children's questions about life, God and religions are rarely childish. Faced with them, we are often helpless. However, we do not want to deprive a child of information and opportunities for reflection. This book is for anyone who wants to answer the embarrassing questions of 5-12 year olds in a simple, non-simplistic way. In a "fair" way, that is to say in fidelity to the faith of Christians and in respect of other religions. These pages first provide the essential elements of response to twenty essential questions on religions. At the same time, they give us the means to develop our own words and dare to engage in dialogue with our children. It is so true that the good questions of the little ones are an opportunity for the big ones. Back cover A completely revised reissue (1990) giving ample space to various religions. This book is aimed at adults who have questions about religions or who are questioned by children aged 5 to 12. It provides them with essential knowledge and ideas for talking with their children. A simple but not simplistic approach because children need answers that are as accurate as possible. Each short, lively and solidly documented chapter answers an adult question in the form of a child's question. The first part addresses the major religious questions arising from the progressive discovery of human life and the universe as well as the growth of personal consciousness. The second part addresses the questions that arise from the encounter of the various forms of religious life of believers. View all Product Descriptions
