Jesus is building his church, and children are a big part of it. If we’re going to follow his lead, we must welcome, protect, and value kids as a ministry priority.
If we give the impression that getting your family-discipleship strategy right is the way to produce perfect, Christian children, then we’re presenting a false gospel.
The most natural place for children’s ministry teachers to begin is to look at a Bible story and think about what models should be followed—or avoided.
