"I wonder what's different about this version of Godly Play Volume
4? Plenty! New presentations take us beyond Pentecost; appendices
take us deeper into the foundational documents and explore the
Spiral Curriculum; scripts have been refreshed to take account of
40 years of Godly Play experience. I'm excited that this revised
volume builds on the work that has gone before."
––The Reverend Mary Hawes, National Children & Youth Adviser,
Church of England"This updated volume has clear instructions for
use of the lessons leading children through the holy mysteries of
the Lenten and Easter seasons as well as Pentecost and Trinity
Sunday."
––Sharon Massie, Program Director at Grace Episcopal Church,
Lexington, Virginia"The new revised and expanded edition of The
Complete Guide to Godly Play, Volume 4 is an excellent addition to
the Godly Play curriculum. The new formatting of the stories make
them more user friendly for the storytellers with helpful
suggestions on how to use the lesson and additional background
information which help connect the story to the liturgical year.
The fresh look and feel of the revision reminds us how the spiral
curriculum of Godly Play helps our children enter into the
religious language and the presence of God by going deeper into the
wondering, thus creating the opening for the work of the Holy
Spirit. For more than 26 years, Godly Play has been my heart and
life work and I am grateful to share this updated edition with my
teachers and the children we serve to enhance their Godly Play
teaching experience."

Play Mentor and Retired Trainer
