Excerpt from The Manual: A Practical Guide to the Sunday-School Work
Definition. Perhaps, we had better not try to give a formal and complete definition, but let us take it up in its parts and see what the idea Of Christian education includes.
Conversion. - We mav safely say that there can be no true Christian education till there is a Christian life. The very first purpose, then, is to bring the heart Of the pupil to Christ as the Saviour. The normal Christian life begins in early childhood, and all those who come to Christ later are born out Of due time.
Development. But the idea of a Chris tian education involves more than this. TO develop and mature the Christian character is no less the work Of the school, than the bringing Of them to Christ.
