Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Adolescents, like everyone else, make mistakes. However, religious educators Cynthia L. Cameron, Lakisha R. Lockhart-Rusch, and Emily A. Peck argue that some youths are born with the privilege of making mistakes in ways that others often are not. They also argue that many Christian education practices that guide our understandings of mistake-making are shaped by gender and gender identity, sexual orientation, and race in ways that disenfranchise some adolescents.In response, Cameron, Lockhart-Rusch, and Peck curate a much-needed conversation that helps religious educators accompany adolescents and better understand mistakes based on a theological framework that names adolescents as fundamentally good. The result is an edited volume that explores ways educators can walk with adolescents so that youth can learn from their mistakes and grow without misunderstanding all mistakes as sin. Together, these essays seed a theology of adolescent goodness that's rooted in a liberative Christian theological anthropology.Drawing on both qualitative and quantitative research, Nobody's Perfect offers nuanced and robust definitions of what a mistake is, apart from definitions of sin. The book also explores the challenges of talking about mistake-making and sin with adolescents within religious institutional contexts that shape policy, pastoral practice, and ministry orientations. Finally, the book presents youths' own voices about how they understand and process what mistake-making looks like in the contexts in which they live and learn.Nobody's Perfect is for Christian educators who serve either in the academy or in congregational settings. The book well serves educators who recognize the various cultural and developmental challenges adolescents face when their church communities. The book also offers tools to help such church leaders attend to religious education spaces with a renewed theology that can root a more liberative experience of religious education. Cynthia L. Cameron, Lakisha R. Lockhart-Rusch, and Emily A. Peck argue that some adolescents have the privilege to make mistakes in ways that others often do not. In Nobody's Perfect, the editors offer a curated volume that affirms adolescents as fundamentally good and presents pathways that help youth distinguish mistakes from sin.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Many arguments have been made for the continued good work of all-girls schools: they prepare girls well for success in college and career, helping them be better students, better leaders, and more assertive citizens. All-girls Catholic schools offer something more: a rationale that is rooted in the theological commitments of the Roman Catholic Church. Indeed, in a contemporary culture that routinely marginalizes adolescent girls and holds them to unattainable expectations, the Church and its theologians and religious educators because of their commitment to human dignity and flourishing must advance a theological anthropology that centers adolescent girls. This theological anthropology of female adolescent flourishing then provides both a rationale for the Churchs continued support of all-girls Catholic schools and a vision for the mission of these schools as they advocate for the girls they serve. All-girls schools, therefore, can be places where the commitment to the flourishing of girls is prioritized and where the toxic milieu of contemporary culture can be resisted. In this book, Cynthia Cameron draws theological attention to female adolescence and uses the resulting robust theological anthropology to provide a theological argument for all-girls Catholic schools. It draws from the work of developmental and clinical psychologists who work with adolescent girls, from systematic, contextual, feminist, and intersectional theologians who explore what it means for humans to be created by God in the image of God, and from educational researchers focusing on the history and mission of Catholic schools in the United States. Ultimately, it argues that, in addition to the psychosocial and educational reasons for supporting all-girls Catholic schools, there must also be a theological reason. All-girls Catholic schools must be committed to the dignity and goodness of girls, to the basic truth that girls are already good as they are and not just for the adults that they may become.
