Book excerpt: Have you struggled with teaching children the Christian Faith? Have you tried - and failed - to get children interested using the latest curriculum from the church publishing house, with the latest graphics, charts, worksheets, quizzes, and interactive multimedia? Have you struggled to keep children interested in learning the faith - and then struggle after confirmation to keep them in the faith? You are NOT alone! The problem isn't that the materials don't use enough of the latest trends in education, and the latest technology to drum up interest. Those things are the problem! And Holy Scripture can give us a picture of what a successful catechism program in the church should look like. So this book starts with Holy Scripture. Then, we look at the last 2000 years - sometimes it goes well, sometimes its a struggle. But we can learn from the great teachers of the past. They can show us what works and what doesn't. We don't need to lurch from failing trend to failing trend. Catechetics: Fixing Confirmation takes a deep look at our assumptions about instruction, shows where we went wrong, and gives the tools to find a solution that works.
