2nd Hand - Creating A Learning Church By Margaret Cooling

2nd hand book published 2005. Whilst the book is in good-as-new condition, personal details have been removed from page 1

Preaching or teaching in church carries the responsibility of understanding the learning process. However, for most of us there is a gap between teaching and learning: what we hope to teach or learn and what is actually learnt are often two different things.

This fascinating and absorbing book is about closing that gap and creating a learning church where everybody embarks on a journey of learning with God that is not only life-long, but also life-changing.

The material draws on research concerning how we learn and applies it to the church context. It suggests a range of simple strategies and techniques for improving teaching and learning - some fairly easy to introduce, others needing to be introduced slowly.

Each chapter shows what the insights mean in practice, followed by at least one worked example for sermons, youth work, Sunday club, children's talks, drama, reflections, prayers, quiet days, Bible reading or Bible studies.
