Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every faith community knows the challenges of inviting new members and the next generation into its shared life, without falling into an arid traditionalism or a shallow relativism. Brueggemann finds a framework for education in the structure of the Hebrew Bible canon, with its assertion of centre and limit (in the Torah), of challenge (in the prophets), and of inquiry (in the writings). Incorporating the best insights from canonical criticism, Old Testament theology and pedagogical theory, this revised edition is introduced by Amy Erickson of the Iliff School of Theology.
