As we attempt to lead the kids in our churches into a deeper faith in Jesus, we often do a great job of sharing stories from the Bible. We want them to know all the key characters and how God worked in their lives. We want them to know how God has worked in the world and the fact that He has the power to do miracles, including overcoming death. We teach them in many creative ways, and we have them take home crafts or sing songs that will hopefully help them remember what they heard.
All of this is good and important stuff, but what if we took it one more step? What if, instead of just pointing them to the stories OF the Bible, we pointed them TO the Bible?
There will come a time in their lives when stories fade, questions arise, and they will need a strong foundation to stand on. They will need to know where they can go to get answers and learn truth. They will need a resource that is everlasting and speaks to the true desires of their heart.
In this month’s coaching video, we want to encourage you and those who lead alongside you to continue doing what you are doing to lead kids in the faith while maybe thinking through how you can add a layer. The Bible is central to our faith and should become central in the lives of the parents and kids we lead. As you seek to be a better leader, check out this month’s video and think through how you can perhaps lead in a deeper way.
