Thoughts on Children

Theres a saying that each child is a thought in the mind of God. But even if we believe this, and approach the children entrusted to us with the reverence that such a belief ought to instill, we may often feel helpless whether in the face of a two-year-olds tantrum or a teenagers silence. In this little book, two fathers (themselves a father and son) share their thoughts on the essence of bringing up children. Whats more, the authors are the Blumhardts, whose huge contribution to 20th century theology, especially Karl Barth, is now being more widely recognized.
