Integrated Christian Education

"Each new book of John Westerhoff's cements my belief that he is one today's prophets. This latest work is an exciting synthesis of family, story, ritual, and church that shows us what we can be as a people of God when we integrate our ministries. I highly recommend it for all in parish ministry who are trying to put it all together and create the living faith community for which we yearn." -- Delores Curran (from the back cover of the book)
