Children don't just learn theology. They actively create it, playing with ideas and drawing together aspects of their own lives to form theological understanding. David Csinos offers a groundbreaking exploration of how cultural contexts intersect with the theological meaning-making of children.

When our Lord's disciples came to Him regarding prayer, they did not ask Him to teach them how to pray, but rather they asked Him to teach them to pray. Obviously even those closest to Christ needed to learn to pray. And so do we. Here, some of our best Bible teachers and expositors give us instruction on prayer, from why we should pray, to what prayer is, how it ties in with God's sovereignty, what it means to pray in Jesus' name, what it means to hallow God's name, and why God is to be the focus of our prayers, not ourselves. These, and many other topics, are addressed in this helpful book.

This gospel of the kingdom of God; this gospel concerning God’s King; this gospel concerning the abounding grace of God by which He gives us the possibility of coming to the throne of God–this gospel has been entrusted to those who are followers of the Lord Jesus to be preached in the whole world. This is our great call, our great commission: “Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all the nations ...” (Matthew 28:19). We just can’t go out of duty. It is the love of God that has to be shed abroad in our hearts that will bring us to a place where, perhaps, we shall come into this preaching of the gospel of the kingdom in the whole world for a testimony. From every tribe, from every tongue, from every kindred, from every nation: treasure for the city of God. May the Lord use the words enclosed to stir hearts in this way.
