An accessible introduction to the broad scope of Christian education that focuses on its practice in the local church.

This accessible introduction to the broad scope of Christian education focuses on its practice in the local church. Two leading experts argue that Christian education encompasses all of the intentional practices of the local church, including worship, mission, sacraments, and teaching. They explore Christian education not only as a field of study but as a vital congregational ministry, showing how congregations can engage in discipleship and formation for spiritual growth. The book features exercises and other pedagogical devices and includes reflection questions and suggestions for further reading.

Mark A. Maddix (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) is dean of the School of Theology and Christian Ministries and professor of practical theology and Christian discipleship at Point Loma Nazarene University in San Diego, California. James Riley Estep Jr. (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) is vice president of academics at Central Christian College of the Bible in Moberly, Missouri.
