Changing Lives covers everything you need to know about working with children and families – the why to, the how to, the when to and the where to. Mark Griffiths examines the history, theology and practice of children’s ministry and shares the wisdom he has gained from many years’ experience of leading hundreds of groups, assemblies and youth services. In practical chapters, backed with sample resources, he shows how to communicate with children in the brave new postmodern world of church, school and community. This one stop resource covers everything from the vision for children’s work to matters such as record keeping, home visits, timetables, child protection legislation and templates for lessons.
