The Spiritual Guidance of Children

• A magisterial survey of a significant movement in religious education

• A black-and-white photo at the beginning of each chapter brings the key figures to life for the reader

This new book is an important "history-of-traditions" work in which Godly Play founder Jerome Berryman re-visions religious education as spiritual guidance and traces the history of Montessori religious education through four generations. Berryman then highlights the development of the Godly Play approach to spiritual guidance within this context and concludes with thoughts about the fifth generation and the future of the tradition.
