This is a book that relentlessly pursues defining the goals of Christian education and then offers a plan in keeping with those goals. So many books in the field assume the goals and simply describe the methods. Not so Larry Richards. His biblical and theological analysis conveys an excitement that makes Christian education a mission, not just a responsibility. And still his approach is eminently practical, insightful, and motivational.
Lawrence O. Richards has served as an editor and writer at Scripture Press Publications; as an educator who has taught at colleges and seminaries as diverse as Wheaton, Princeton, and Talbot; and as a full-time author and speaker. Dr. Richards is the author of some 200 works. His publications with Zondervan include Children's Ministry, Christian Education, Church Leadership, and the New International Encyclopedia of Bible Words (Zondervan Understand the Bible Reference series). His specialty Bibles include the best-selling Adventure Bible for children, and The Teen Study Bible, done with his wife, Sue. Dr. Richards and his wife live in Hudson, Florida.
