What if our children saw church,
not as a place where their parents went out of mundane routine, but a place where they delighted to go?

What if our children saw church as the place where their parents expected to meet with God, worship Him, and learn to walk with Him?

What if our children saw church as the place where their parents looked for opportunities to speak to, encourage, and pray for other members?

What if our children saw church as the place where their parents cheerfully gave their money, time, and resources to the mission of God?

What if our children saw the church as the place where their parents were constantly inviting their friends, family, and even strangers to go?

What if our children saw the church as the place where their parents were refreshed and invigorated for the week ahead?

What if our children saw the church as the place that their parents valued so highly that almost nothing came in the way of their attending?

How might all of this affect the child’s, and future adult’s, view of church?
The next generation is watching us, parents! By the grace of God, may we demonstrate through our attitudes and actions the incredible value, beauty, and privilege of being a part of God’s church
