From Sir With Love

In 20 years of Religious Education teaching, there seems to be little ground we did not visit, although I suppose there must be an acre or so of it really... And most of it came from people's questions, such as these below: all asked in the classroom, many of them often, and most of them explored in this book:

•Does God really exist?

•Why do bad things happen if God loves us all?

• How do we know the story of Jesus is true?

•Do science and religious beliefs ever meet?

•Can Christians believe in any other religion as well as Christianity?

•Is the Bible true?

•What is love?

•When did religion start?

•Can you experience love at 15?

•Why does everything go wrong when you're late?

•Where do you get your ties?

From Sir, With Love: Glimpses Through a Classroom Window is the personal memoir of Ken Edgecombe, a teacher of 21 years' teaching Religious Education in a private girls' school in Wellington, New Zealand.

Ken reflects on the many questions he encountered from enquiring young minds and on their reactions to the topics that they met.
