Title: Honest Discussion of Difficult Topic
Review: Although Osmer bases his conclusions on his theological presuppositions, he is honest enough to admit this upfront and clearly spell out his presuppositions. Working within this framework, Osmer draws out a threefold approach to Christian education, based on the teaching ministry of Paul. At times, Osmer is a bit technical, but overall this book is a helpful and practical guide for congregations serious about dialoguing on educational ministries. This book is most useful if read in conjunction with Osmer's earlier work: The Teaching Office of the Church.
