About
With the decline of traditional Sunday school and education programs in recent years, many Christians have not learned the fundamental doctrinal content of the faith. In this text Gary Parrett and Steve Kang set forth a thoroughly biblical vision for intentional teaching of the Christian faith that attends to both the content and process of educational and formational ministries.

"Teaching the Faith, Forming the Faithful provides an integrated approach to contemporary educational ministry im the church. This book is a must-read for scholars, pastors, and laypeople serious about disciple-making."
Mark H. Heinemann, Journel of Evangelical Homiletics Society, March 2011
"Instead of arguling that a church can either feed their members minds or feed their hearts, Parrett and Kang believe that a church should be doing both. And in this volume they lay out a plan for how to make that happen. They offer theory and theology; but they also offer a sample curriculum and questions for thinking through the church;s corporate worship."

"In a well-researched and comprehensive work, Kang and Parrett provide a rich and nuanced introduction to Christian education well worth reading by all those committed to faithful teaching and formation in the third millennium. The biblical and theological connections provide a rich tapestry for thought and practice. I enthusiastically recommend this work for scholars and practitioners alike."
