The book is a literal exposition of Jesus’ statements: “...I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 18:3), and “I tell you the truth, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it” (Mark 10:15). Jesus also said to his disciples, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these” (Mark 10:14). Like a little child seeks to answer the questions: How does one receive the kingdom like a little child? How does one change and become like little children? What does it mean that the kingdom of God belongs to such as little children? The author has given down-to-earth explanations to these issues spiced with simple, captivating, and amazing real life examples. Everyone, therefore, who desires to enter the kingdom of God, is earnestly advised to read this book. “Like a little child is one of the best books I have ever read. Indeed, it is a masterpiece... I commend all and sundry to assiduously digest it.” – Sam Ike, Priest and Consultant Physician. “The beauty of the book may well be in its style of simplicity...It uses ordinary everyday experiences ... to elucidate its message in simple terms.” – J. N. Obinegbo, Journalist.

Trapped in complicated Christianity? Here's permission to come out of confinement! How did so many people wind up trapped by complicated systems of performance-based faith?

In Simple Faith, he shows us how to get free from such arbitrary confinement. He reminds Christians that they serve a God who promised freedom, peace, and rest. And it's everlasting---not exhausting---life, remember? Here at last is an exhilarating invitation to simple faith. Move beyond rat-race Christianity and break the bars calculated to wilt free spirits. A cage is no place for a Christian. Welcome to your wings!

What does it mean to be “like a child” in antiquity? How did early Christ-followers use a childlike condition to articulate concrete qualifications for God’s kingdom? Many people today romanticize Jesus’s welcoming of little children against the backdrop of the ancient world or project modern Christian conceptions of children onto biblical texts. Eschewing such a Christian exceptionalist approach to history, this book explores how the Gospel of Matthew, 1 Corinthians, and the Gospel of Thomas each associate childlikeness with God’s kingdom within their socio-cultural milieus. The book investigates these three texts vis-à-vis philosophical, historical, and archaeological materials concerning ancient children and childhood, revealing that early Christ-followers deployed various aspects of children to envision ideal human qualities or bodily forms. Calling the modern reader’s attention to children’s intellectual incapability, asexuality, and socio-political utility in ancient intellectual thought and everyday practices, the book sheds new light on the rich and diverse theological visions that early Christ-followers pursued by means of images of children.
