GOD AND CHILDREN has a direct style, full of optimism and freshness. The author writes particularly for parents. He deals with the vocation of parents and their difficult job of bringing up their children to be men, Christians and saints. Everything he says is impregnated with the strong idea that life is only really worthwhile, really happy, if one tries to do things for love of God.

In these chapters, Fr. Urteaga draws heavily on his own rich experience as a teacher and spiritual director. To his subject he brings much doctrine, much humour and enormous common sense. These qualities combine to make God and Children a very valuable book for all parents and especially parents of young children.
