August 02, 2016 (PRLEAP.COM) Entertainment News
August 2, 2016 - A Manual and Devotional for Sunday School Teachers, a new book by G. Davis Dean Jr., has been released by RoseDog Books.

In an overabundance of Sunday School curricula and teacher agendas, the author presents a study that is unique. Rather than contributing to the body of lesson materials, G. Davis Dean Jr.'s focus is upon the nature of Sunday School teaching itself.

Understanding the nature of Sunday School teaching comes about as each teacher learns to appreciate his place of service within the congregation as an extension of the Christian congregation's teaching ministry. But the nature of such teaching and the role of the Sunday School teacher is also as one who has opportunity to promote the social cohesion of a vital portion of the congregation. Such realization in turns shapes his care and concern for the lesson material he presents to the children of his class in support for the faithful parents who send them.

Mr. Dean's subsequent approach to teaching and class management is both theological and practical. But that does not mean his approach becomes reduced to mere formulae, method or technique. Rather, there is a recognition that beyond the pre-prepared weekly Sunday School lesson, the best teaching presentation is also the one adapted to meet the needs of his particular class. In this book, there is espoused a firm reliance upon the guidance of the Holy Spirit who comes by scriptural study, lesson preparation and prayer.
