S5E64: A Charlotte Mason Sunday School with Emily Raible and Tracy Fast
All our teaching of children should be given reverently, with the humble sense that we are invited in this matter to co-operate with the Holy Spirit; but it should be given dutifully and diligently.

Above all, do not read the Bible at the child: do not let any words of the Scriptures be occasions for gibbeting his faults. It is the office of the Holy Ghost to convince of sin; and He is able to use the Word for this purpose, without risk of that hardening of the heart in which our clumsy dealings too often result.

This was so helpful! I am a pastor’s wife in a PCA church and we have been using elements of Charlotte’s method in our sunday school. The biggest feedback I have recieved from the teachers is how easy it is to teach this way! Such a gift to families and teachers! Is Emily’s curriculum available for purchase?
