A topic of frequent discussion in religious education circles is the relationship between theology and practice. How does Christian theology work itself out in the teaching ministries of the church? Christian education expert Robert Pazmino has given much thought to this question. The result is God Our Teacher, a contemporary overview of the messages theology brings to the Christian classroom. Sensitive to today's expanding global culture, Pazmino reaffirms the essential role theology plays in developing educational practices and conventions. He carefully considers the role of key theological principles, such as the Trinity, sin, and the Holy Spirit, for educational thought and practice. This book will be welcomed by anyone involved in the growth and development of Christian education.
