Writing has marked Fr. Greg Udo Njoku, CSSp’s life from his infant classes. He always thrilled his schoolmates in the morning assembly with recitals of little sonnets, dirges, poems, and epic rhymes. For his secondary school, he attended the renowned Kings College in Lagos, Nigeria, a model school founded by British colonizers in 1909 and named after King’s College in Oxford, London, comparable to Harvard University in America (see book 12). Father Greg’s habit for writing is, for him, a therapeutic as well as a spiritual exercise. Writing or reading from his books solaces him greatly and feeds his whole being with joy, strength, peace, hope, and calmness that he is unable to grasp. In reading his writings, he becomes energized and recharged. Gifted with a powerful, creative imagination, much of Father Greg’s writings go with divine inspirations. His book series serves as a panacea for diverse forms of addictions, ill dispositions that could land their victims in rehabs, juvenile justice courts, counseling centers, depression, violent behaviors, jail terms, suicide, and murder. As a hardy Catholic missionary priest for the past thirty-nine years, his writings have been strong references in his pastoral and educational tasks. Father Greg thanks God for the use he has made of his books wherever he has worked.

Exploring and Engaging Spirituality for Today's Children: A Holistic Approach answers questions about the most effective ways to help children, pre-teens, and teens develop spiritually. This collection of research gleaned from presentations during the Fourth Triennial Children's Spirituality Conference at Concordia University in 2012 is divided into four major sections: (1) theological and historical foundations, (2) engaging parents and congregations, (3) engaging methodologies, and (4) exploring children at risk, child pornography, social justice, intercultural diversity, and abstinence education. Researchers acknowledge that the home is the foundation for Christian nurture. In Exploring and Engaging Spirituality for Today's Children, both scholars and ministry leaders come together with parents to promote a holistic environment where children are encouraged to love, respect, and obey God. From birth to high school, children's voices resonate throughout these studies as they are invited to share their reflections and experiences. Exploring and Engaging Spirituality for Today's Children is a lively, easy-to-read collection that reflects a broad range of faith traditions and is ideal for all those who are committed to the spiritual development of children.
