WHY re-reading the Gospel stories of interactions between Jesus and

children gives guidance for creating worship that truly centers children.

Host Dawn Rundman talks to Biblical scholar, professor and author (and

mom!) Amy Lindeman Allen about what it means when you take a

“childist” (as opposed to an “adultist”) approach to your work.

Amy’s book, “The Gifts They Bring: How Children in the Gospels Can Shape

Inclusive Ministry,” reviews the lessons to be learned from the distinct and

varied gifts that Jesus recognized in His connections with children and

youth. It’s available wherever books are sold.
