Excerpt from The Junior Worker and Work
As in the affairs of men, so in the development of character during childhood and youth, there are tides which, taken at their flood, lead on to victory. Such a flood-tide period in the religious life of every normal boy and girl is that brief stretch of time called later childhood and known in Sunday-school nomen clature as the junior period. It covers approximately the years nine to eleven or twelve.
During this period, which is one of rapid transition, the traits and interests of earlier childhood give way to those of full-fledged boyhood and girlhood. Physical and mental changes bring strange premonitions of riper years. There are noticeable a dawn ing social consciousness, a growing recognition of right and wrong, and an awakening conscience. These are first steps to ward independence in moral conduct. In the inner realm of the Spirit growth is likewise rapid, bringing to the life of the boy and girl a first religious crisis With a spiritual awakening that marks a flood tide of opportunity for leading the individual boy or girl to personal decision for Christ.
The work of religious nurture and training during this impor tant period is the theme of this book, which is intended espe cially for teachers of junior pupils in the church school. The author, Josephine L. Baldwin, is the well-known writer of the Graded Lessons for the junior years. She speaks as one having authority, but in language that every teacher and every parent can understand. The book makes possible self-improvement on the part of those who cannot attend a teacher-training class, or whose previous opportunities for reading and study have been meager. It is suitable for use in training classes, as a speciali zation unit for the Junior Department. It is intended to super sede the earlier manual bearing the same title.
