OneHope & EE PartnerTo Change Our Kids’ Future

In most kids’ church activities, kids learn Bible verses, learn of the greatsaints of the Old Testament, read of those monumental stories of faith like Abraham’s readiness to sacrifice Isaac, Noah and the flood, and David andGoliath. These are noble efforts and of importance. But unfortunately, in many of our churches, what’s missing is the thorough clarification of the Gospel,understanding of our faith, and equipping in sharing.Many good churches “serve” too many of the same servings. We call it a spiritual diet. Look at theplate and do you see multiple servings of vegetables? Vegetables (example: studying Old Testamentheroes of the faith) are nutritious, but too many servings take the place of an essential food group(example: teaching kids the Gospel so they personalize it, know it, AND can share it). Kids need aspiritually well-rounded diet.What’s being taught is good, but what’s NOT being taught is the issue. The spiritual diet has good food,but it’s missing the main ingredient—the protein—the Gospel.Kids and adults must know the foundation of their faith:• Jesus• Who He is• What separates us from Him• What He did• What He offersThat’s the Gospel. When we KNOW the foundation, then we can share; when we share, we growfirmer in trusting in our foundation.In this issue of
