In 20 years of Religious Education teaching, there seems to be little ground we did not visit, although I suppose there must be an acre or so of it really... And most of it came from people's questions, such as these below: all asked in the classroom, many of them often, and most of them explored in this book:
-Does God really exist?-Why do bad things happen if God loves us all?- How do we know the story of Jesus is true?-Do science and religious beliefs ever meet?-Can Christians believe in any other religion as well as Christianity?-Is the Bible true?-What is love?-When did religion start?-Can you experience love at 15?-Why does everything go wrong when you're late?-Where do you get your ties?
From Sir, With Love: Glimpses Through a Classroom Window is the personal memoir of Ken Edgecombe, a teacher of 21 years' teaching Religious Education in a private girls' school in Wellington, New Zealand.
Ken reflects on the many questions he encountered from enquiring young minds and on their reactions to the topics that they met.
