In this helpful book, Andrew D. Lester, noted teacher and experienced counselor, challenges ministers to take up and often reglected task--caring for the children of the parish. It is the pastor's role, Lester says, to make 'spiritual sense out of the chaos and crisis.' He looks to the ministry of Jesus as the model for faithful, effective ministry and illustrates how a pastor's relationship with troubled children can have a significant impact on their spiritual and psychological development.
