Transforming the Heart: Teaching High School Religion (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780993699740)

They can't reach into your world, but you can reach into theirs...

Religion class is the most influential high school course a student can take. A good religion course is challenging, reflective, empowering and necessary. It acknowledges that students are people with dignity, appreciates their background and puts them in touch with a world others fear to tread.

How can one course do so much?

This book opens the door to that conversation. It shares the insight of some masters in the field who have already shown the power of a good religion class. It also draws upon the experience of the authors who have seen its transforming power on students. Written in a style that's open and accessible, Vito and Chris shed light on one of the most misunderstood classes every student should take.

If you haven't read a book like this before, it's because there hasn't been one.
