CHILD AS THEOLOGIAN
~with the Holy Spirit as the Inner Teacher~
From time to time we are blessed with a glimpse into the interior spiritual life of the child. In the unstructured time following a scripture or liturgical presentation, the child spends time with the materials and in art expression. "This is the moment when the child, in the inner dialogue [with the Holy Spirit] personalizes what has been presented and applies it to his own life." - Sofia Cavalletti, Religious Potential of the Child.
