Historically, th...Great thoughts on starting early.<br />Historically, the church has used a couple of tools to teach children and new believers. One was catechusm which is question and answer. We use the New City Catechism app which has an adult version and child version in it. But the repetition of the question/ response drills into their mind biblical truth. We have been doibg this with Gretchen (2 1/2) and she is giving the answer for question 1 after 2 months of casual work. <br />Second is singing biblical truth. The Wesley brothers did this for the coal miners they preached to. John would preach and Charles would write a song based on the truth preached so they could sing in the mines reinforcing the preaching. Many of our great hymns came from them.<br />The second would be family worship. Families that sing, read Scripture, and pray together teaches our kids that we were created for worship daily. The best first church is in the home.<br />Also, there are a couple of resources for Scrupture songs. Seed Family Worship and the Rizers (cartoon on youtube). If your child can sing the wheels on the bus, then how about Psalm 1? <br />Just a few thoughts to chew on!<br />Soli Deo Gloria!<br />AaronAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16815456257006613273noreply@blogger.com
