Book one of the Children and Families in the Bible series reflects on what the Bible says about children, and how our churches, communities, societies, and cultures view the worth and role of children.

This booklet may be used for private study or as an instruction tool in studies and workshops in churches, amongst child care workers, or other settings. It is suitable for young adults and older (ages 18+) and is a downloadable book in PDF format.
