Publisher's Synopsis
The Religious Development of the Child: An Evangelical Study from the Scientific View Point is a book written by Rufus Washington Weaver and published in 1913. The book explores the religious development of children and offers insights into how parents and educators can foster healthy spiritual growth in young people. Weaver, who was a professor of psychology and education at Vanderbilt University, approaches the topic from a scientific perspective, drawing on research in child development and psychology to inform his analysis. However, he also brings an evangelical perspective to the study, emphasizing the importance of faith in the lives of children and advocating for a Christian approach to education. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the role of parents and teachers in shaping children's religious beliefs, the influence of social and cultural factors on spiritual development, and the importance of prayer and worship in the lives of young people. Overall, The Religious Development of the Child is a thoughtful and informative exploration of a topic that remains relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
