It’s “Graduation Season”, when children of all ages move up a grade or finish altogether and move out into our big, wide and sometimes scary world. My concern, though, for even the brightest and the best is that they are spiritually unprepared to face the evil that threatens the world. So few kids receive education in what it takes to overcome evil–so few children these days are introduced to Christ in their daily lives. Jesus (Mark 10:14b) said, “let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.”
At First Baptist, we have an active, engaging Sunday school, with teachers ready to teach. Do know of some kids, in your neighborhood or family, who should be introduced to God’s love? Bring them along. Training these children in the ways of our Lord will help ensure a better world in the years to come.
Blessings to you today as you reach out. Pastor Jim.
