“Cameron Shaffer has written a generously diagnostic, biblically sound, and consistently edifying book that is as timely as it is helpful. We have needed an accessible, reliable guide to passing the faith down to the next generation(s) that is neither reactionary to problematic modern church practices nor blindly devoted to the better, older ways, and now we have it. Shaffer refreshingly— and rightly!— commends the old- new way of long- standing but recently forgotten Reformed conviction: the centrality of a healthy congregational, pastoral, and parental ecosystem for how God’s garden grows. Pastors, teachers, other church leaders, moms, dads, grandparents, single Christians, older children— it is hard to imagine who doesn’t need this book. I fully expect that those who read it will immediately want to share it, as I do, and that pastors and churches who heed even a little of the solid wisdom found here will be better for it.”
Dr. Mark A. Garcia, president, Greystone Theological Institute; associate professor of systematic theology, Westminster Theological Seminar
“This book is a must- read for parents, pastors, and congregations who need help with what it takes to intentionally partner with God’s Spirit to create in children and their families a discipleship that lasts a lifetime. As challenging as it is practical and helpful, it gives clear and compelling ways to foster multigenerational relationships in congregations that nurture a maturity of faith for all God’s children. Keeping Kids Christian offers a robust corrective to the viral dechurching of twenty- somethings walking out of the sanctuary and never returning.”
Robbie Castleman, author of Parenting in the Pew and Story- Shaped Worship
“I wish I’d had this book when I started a new church plant some thirty years ago. We asked, ‘What will we do with the children?’ We got some of it right, but we would have gotten more of it right if Cameron Shaffer’s book had been there to guide us. With depth and breadth of biblical and theological insight, Shaffer shows that lifelong discipleship matters and it takes a community to make a difference. This book is a wonderful starting point for anyone who is concerned about all generations of faith.”
Rev. Jul Medenblik, president, Calvin Theological Seminary
“Every pastor longs to help the children of the church remain faithful to the call of the gospel. In Keeping Kids Christian, Cameron Shaffer provides a historically aware, theologically rich, and practically wise guide for thoughtful shepherding and parenting of our covenant children. It is written for pastors, but parents would learn much from his counsel as well.”
Dr. Scott Redd, lead pastor, Briarwood Presbyterian Church
“Cameron Shaffer is an experienced pastor who, in this book, tackles one of the most pressing issues facing the evangelical church today— namely, how we can encourage our children to persevere in their faith as they enter their adult years. Whether or not one agrees with his theological description of covenant children, his advice to parents, pastors, and parishioners is of great value as we face this crucial challenge.”
Sandy Willson, pastor emeritus, Second Presbyterian Church, Memphis, Tennessee
