Περιγραφή
Σύνοψη:Jesus’ concern for children was evident in his ministry in an episode when he rebuked the disciples who scolded them (Luke 18:15–17). This article considers why Jesus cared for and safeguarded little children in his mission. The Church in Africa as a steward of the kingdom of God has to review its methods of caring for and protecting children. The contribution of the article will be to urge the Church in Africa to take more seriously its concern for children. The methodological approach engages qualitative thought with quantitative research into critical findings from particular churches.
