Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Training of the Devotional Life The present-day emphasis upon the subject matter of Christian education and upon scientifically graded courses of study and methods of instruction represents a wholesome reaction against the unpedagogical lesson system and teaching habits of a generation ago. In the actual use of the better tools for religious teaching thus afforded there is, however, a danger that lesson materials and learning processes may be exalted above the spirit, that the framework and material may cramp the soul, and that study about God and truth and beauty may take the place of worship, humility, and growth in the Christian virtues. The complete program of Christian education will give large place to training the devotional life and to the cultivation of those fundamental elements of Christian experience that express personal relationships, attitudes, and aspirations of the individual. This training of the devotional life should begin at the home. Through imitation and participation in the religious life and worship of the family group, the religious nature of the child should receive its first strong stimulation and find its first opportunity for self-expression. But for the achievement of religious maturity, imitation and participation in the religious exercise of the family will not suffice. The proper development of the devotional life requires its control and guidance in a gradually expanding religious environment.
