Theres a saying that each child is a thought in the mind of God. But even if we believe this, and approach the children entrusted to us with the reverence that such a belief ought to instill, we may often feel helpless whether in the face of a two-year-olds tantrum or a teenagers silence. In this little book, two fathers (themselves a father and son) share their thoughts on the essence of bringing up children. Whats more, the authors are the Blumhardts, whose huge contribution to 20th century theology, especially Karl Barth, is now being more widely recognized.

Pastor, politician, and author, Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt (1842¿1919) with his unconventional ideas about the kingdom of God, profoundly influenced a whole generation of European seekers. Among the luminaries he influenced were Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Emil Brunner, Oscar Cullman, and Karl Barth. Yet his vision and witness are still waiting to be discovered by most Americans, few of whom have had access to his works. He carried forward the work of his father, Johann Christoph Blumhardt (1805¿1880), who is regarded by many as the key figure of German pietism.
