When we gather this summer to talk about who’s responsible for nurturing children’s spiritual sensibilities and identities, we hope to hear from practitioners as well as researchers (and those that understand themselves as both). Think about the reflective practitioners you know who work with children, youth, and families in thoughtful and effective ways. Invite them to contribute to our communal conversation and share the link for proposals. Notice the places where your own work intersects with innovative and experimental practices. Consider what you have to bring to the table and how you will present it as part of our shared feast of ideas.
To get your creative juices flowing, check out this link to a conversation my colleague, Erin Reibel, and I had with Charlotte Elia, moderator of the How We Do Digital Ministry podcast:
I can’t wait to hear how you and others in your networks are answering the question “Whose children are they?”
