Jesus encourages us to become like children in order to inherit God's Kingdom. Childlike faith is not an option. R. C. Sproul Jr. explores in depth what it means to accept Jesus' invitation to practice a childlike faith. As the father of eight children, R. C. Sproul Jr. watches how his own children approach every day, buoyed by trust, hope, and joy. Through their eyes, the world is fresh and brand-new. Everything is an invitation to express astonishment and wonder at the great gift of life―and, the great Giver. The Call to Wonder is an invitation to rest in childlike joy and peace built on a deep trust in the living God. Like a child, you, too, can rest in God's almighty arms and gasp at the fireworks of his glory exploding around you every day in his creation.

From the Back Cover

Unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:3 (NKJV)
Take a long, hard look at the young children in your life―maybe they’re your sons, your daughters. Or maybe they’re the children who run past you at the mall or in the halls at church.
What does it look like to have a heart and life that imitate theirs?
When Jesus tells us to become like a child, what is he asking of us?

In The Call to Wonder, R. C. Sproul Jr., the father of eight children, asks us to take the words of Jesus to heart:
Daily, I witness my spiritual betters in my own children.
When the snows come, I see ice crystals falling, slick roads, and rising heat bills. They sit at the window in awe of God’s creativity.
When nighttime falls and the stars shine, I muse about burning balls of hydrogen. They join the dancing of the spheres in celebration of the God who made them.
When our family sits down to eat, I envision a cluttered kitchen and dishes needing to be washed. They see daily bread delivered by their faithful heavenly Father.
Why would anyone not want to become like a child?
Why wouldn’t we want to learn again how to squeal with delight at simple pleasures?
Why wouldn’t we rest completely in God, trusting Him with our futures?
I think that was precisely Jesus’ point.
If only we would learn how to live that way.

Discover today in The Call to Wonder how you can recapture a childlike spirit. God is calling you back to what you’ve lost.
