New Directions for Holy Questions Summary

New Directions for Holy Questions: Progressive Christian Theology for Families by Claire Brown

Rooted in the teachings of progressive Christianity for today's kids and parents

With accessible language, Bible stories, and connections to daily life, this book guides children and the adults who love them through the core teachings of Christianity. Kids have big questions about God and faith, and, while many of those questions don't have one clear answer, Christians throughout the ages have given us helpful ways to think and talk about what we believe.

Each chapter includes simple spiritual practices and questions for reflection, either in solitary reading or through conversation between children and caregivers or ministers. It is oriented towards anti-racism, gender equality, economic justice, care of the environment, affirmation of LGBTQ+ folks, trauma-informed practice, and global citizenship.

New Directions for Holy Questions Reviews

New Directions for Holy Questions will be a go-to resource for my family. The stories, questions, and practices within these pages are sure to spark spiritual wisdom and enliven the theological imaginations of all who read them, no matter how young or old they may be.
-David M. Csinos, associate professor of Practical Theology at Atlantic School of Theology, founder of Faith Forward, and author of Little Theologians

The 'new direction' that is being described in this book is the idea that adults and children can grow spiritually as they wrestle together with their responses to questions of faith. Stories from the Bible, contemporary stories of justice, and spiritual practices appropriate for all ages are on the rich menu of this imaginative resource.
-Rev. Dr. Elizabeth Caldwell, McCormick Theological Seminary, professor emerita
