Exploring Story and Faith in Children's Ministry: The Forgetful Prince
In this episode of the Effective Ministry Podcast, host Tim Beilharz, talks with Matt and Lauren Redmond, authors of the children's book 'The Forgetful Prince'. They discuss the role of storytelling, art, and literature in the spiritual formation of children and the partnership between church and home in nurturing faith. The conversation delves into themes of the book such as adoption, identity, and belonging, and explores how these concepts are foundational for both children and adults in understanding their place in God's family. Additionally, they highlight additional resources developed for churches to use the book as a curriculum, and touch upon Matt's work with Anglicare in foster care and adoption. The podcast emphasises the importance of community in raising children within a Christian context and the potential for stories like 'The Forgetful Prince' to impact both the young and old by reminding them of their identity in Christ.
