The Mystery of Children: What Our Kids Teach Us About Childlike Faith

“This joyful, honest, and compelling read calls me to be grateful for every laugh and each tear I have been granted as a parent and a child.”--Dan Allender, president of Mars Hill Graduate School and author of The Healing Path“Page after page Mason makes observations that are so transparently true that we wonder why we never noticed or thought or spoke like that before.”--Luci Shaw, writer in residence, Regent College, author of The Angles of Light and Writing the River“An extraordinary book. Mike Mason has shaken me to the core of my soul--he knows me.” --Brennan Manning, author of Ruthless Trust and The Ragamuffin GospelJust as Mike Mason’s best-selling The Mystery of Marriage explored the parallels between marriage and our relationship with God, so does The Mystery of Children illuminate key spiritual truths modeled in the complex parent-child relationship. More than a manual on parenting, this book is for everyone who wishes to become childlike in heart or to be closer to children--two desires that are intimately and wondrously entwined.
