Episode 2: The Church’s Role in a Child’s Faith Formation
Christianity is counter-cultural in America. The wind is no longer at our backs. But that’s not necessarily a bad thing. If we have been lulled by fair weather, our faith can become stronger as we adapt to the changes in our cultural environment.
Considering this change, it’s wise to ask ourselves: How are we partnering with other areas of the church for ministry to children? Are we resourcing and running church services, small groups, and other ministries in essentially the same way we did twenty years ago? Are we passing on traditions and programs, only to have lost a clear focus on the very faith they are meant to foster?
