Spiritual training for children,
By A Customer
This review is from: I Came From Joy Spiritual Affirmations and Activities for Children (Paperback)
One of the greatest difficulties for home schooling is the search for spirtual training guidence authors outside of religous dogma.Ms. Knox presents a series of practical spiritual lessons that all home school parents (Christian and non-Christian) can utilize in their teaching enviornment. The lessons are also easily utilized in a 'Sunday' schoolroom.
5.0 out of 5 stars
