Keepinginthe Word: TheMoralImpactofTrainingOurChildreninGodsWord

Another mo vator for our vision should be the alterna ve if we dont train up our children to look at the world through the lens of the Bible. We can understand this by considering sta s cs from The Barna Group showing that those who have a biblical worldview are: 31 mes less likely to accept cohabita on 18 mes less likely to endorse drunkenness 15 mes less likely to condone homosexuality 12 mes less likely to accept profanity 11 mes less likely to describe adultery as morally acceptable. Its clear that making moral choices based on Gods plans and direc ons to us in His Word produces measurably be er results! Now heres the wakeup call: Barna also found that a personsworldviewisestablishedbythe meheorshereachestheteenyears. Its me to get busy leading and training our kids in Gods Word, but its never too late! h p://awana.org Monday:Genesis26 Tuesday:Genesis27 Thursday:Genesis28 Friday:Genesis29 Saturday:Genesis30 Trythissite!h p:// dailyaudio biblekids.ning.com/

Northside Kids Parent Promise: 1. 2. 3. 4. Because Children are important to God, we screen all volunteers. Because we believe that the most important relationship a child will ever have is with our Savior Jesus Christ, everything we do will focus on how to get, build, and maintain that relationship. Because we believe that Gods Word is the foundation for all we do, we will make it the focus of our activities and model that mindset in our daily lives. Because we believe that the family unit is Gods perfect plan to grow a child, we will gladly walk beside you as you train up your child, and will offer programs to support the Biblical nurture and admonition of each child that will come through our doors.
