The New Compendium of Congregational Education treats in the first section the basics of congregrational pedagogy, in the second part the operational fields of congregational education. In addition to the classic operational fields of church work, new ones such as working with small children, Sunday school, church congresses, student congregations, Protestant schools, church education, welfare and social teaching, and the internet as a teaching tool have all arisen. This list shows that we are indeed dealing with a new compendium. The volume takes stock as well as offers perspectives for future development. The original Compendium of Congregational Education, which appeared in 1987 and corresponds to the Compendium of Religious Education, shows that the role of the Protestant Church in education can be realized only in the form of constructive cooperation between varied places of learning. Now this revised volume has appeared after 20 years. German text.
