Thoughts on Children

There¿s 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-old¿s tantrum or a teenager¿s silence. In this little book, two fathers (themselves a father and son) share their thoughts on the essence of bringing up children. What¿s more, the authors are the Blumhardts, whose huge contribution to 20th century theology, especially Karl Barth, is now being more widely recognized.
