Parents,

What is your biggest fear when it comes to your children? If we asked a group of parents, the answers were vary. Even though all of concerns are legitimate, the greatest fear is your child not knowing the Lord. 

We started the Kids Next steps class this past week with parents joining us. My heart was so happy to see parents that are their kid’s spiritual leaders participate. These are parents that want their children to understand who Christ is and what He did for them as their Savior. Parents and Kids leaders need to be intentional about sharing the gospel, helping children come to repentance and trust Him as Lord of their lives. They need to learn that God is a God of justice and mercy.

There are many stories in the Bible where God provided protection to people such as David from Saul and Daniel from the lions. Remember that Timothy’s grandmother and mother knew the Lord and taught him scriptures starting when he was very young. Parenting can be both fun and challenging. Join us as we start the parenting classes on Wednesday Evenings for the month of October at 6pm. 

Blessings,

Cathy Smith
