Many pastoral caregivers have high anxiety when children are ill or hurt, are unsure how to have a substantive conversation with a nine-year old, or their fears of what could be said keep them from hearing what children have to say. The effective approaches in The Pastoral Care of Children are illustrated to assist you with serving the spiritual needs of children. You will explore actual pastoral care experiences that will help you gain confidence in handling situations such as a teenager's desire to be baptized out of fear of death when neither he nor his parents believe in Christ.\n\nIntelligent and heartfelt, this valuable book gives you a complete theological exploration of ministering to children who may ask you \u0026amp;Why me? \u0026amp;\u0026amp;Why do people have to die? \u0026amp; and \u0026amp; What happens to children if they die before they are baptized? \u0026amp; The Pastoral Care of Children helps you answer these questions with meaningful responses that are genuine and grounded with yourself, and reflect the parents\u0026amp;beliefs. Some of the help you will discover in The Pastoral Care of Children includes: understanding the similarities and differences of caring for children in comparison to adults, such as different vocabularies but similar emotions, and realizing that children are very perceptive using play as a tool, for example referring to a puppet's experience in reference\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0789006057\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0789006057.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Koenig, Harold G\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
