Godly Play Book Group – Godly Play in Middle and Late Childhood

Godly Play Book Group – Godly Play in Middle and Late Childhood

Our second Book Group of 2024 is reading, wondering about and discussing "Godly Play in Middle and Late Childhood", by Cheryl V. Minor. This book explores the ways in which Godly Play mentors (Storytellers and Door People) can continue a Godly Play journey with older children - the children who may be too cool to play or wonder, but who still need to explore those big questions and whose spirituality still needs to be nurtured in a safe and loving space. Godly Play in Middle and Late Childhood is the latest addition to the Godly Play series and was published in 2022. Each time we meet, we will read and discuss a chapter or maybe two. This Book Group is hosted by Michelle and Alex. Our Book Group is on Zoom and will meet on four times, on Wednesday evenings, starting on the 17th January and finishing on 6th March.  We meet between 8pm and 9pm. The dates are: 17 January 31 January 21 February ...
