Produktbeschreibung
The Bible is a book about God (Melina, 8 years old) a book about God, but not one that simply descended from Heaven. Rather, people recount how they have experienced God. They tell it in stories. Stories for and full of life. And that is what we inherited from them. So what do we do with this inheritance?In conversations with children, in school classrooms and when dealing with modern theological studies concerning children we continually encounter a two-pronged challenge: Children fail to understand the medium: Does she want me to believe this story? and they fail to understand the content: That s supposed to be God? This double misunderstanding gets in the way of the theological and educational aspirations: Bible stories are life stories. They prevent the stories from unfolding the true existential power we invest in them.But this reception problem is not one found only among children; adolescents, adults and most of society in general are also affected. The general attitude toward the church, the Bible and God clearly shows this. People look for religious experiences, they seek hope and consolation, especially in difficult times. But not from the God of the Bible, a grossly misunderstood entity, it would appear. So it s shelved, it s uninteresting.The goal of this book is to provide impetus to arouse curiosity surrounding Biblical stories. It uses an image coined by Paul: But we have this treasure in jars of clay (2 Corinthians 4:7).Four steps are suggested: Opening the jar, letting the stories speak for themselves, theologising them, putting the stories back into the jars. Maybe, just maybe, the next time, the listeners will hear more. Bible stories are life stories.
