Teaching and the Shaping of the Future Culture of Children

Kent Shaffer offers some helpful, and i think important, wisdom on the importance of pedagogy in shaping the way children come to perceive and engage their world.

For those of you who are skeptical of psychology and/or sociology and ideas like Peter Berger's social construction of reality, stretch yourselves, eh? Let me assure you: this actually matters, and to a great degree. Those who do not take culture making seriously surrender that task to the principalities of this world.

A wonderful, recent book that you need to buy and read, if you haven't already, is Andy Crouch's Culture Making: Recovering Our Creative Calling.
