Thought for the Day/Week

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY/WEEK:

"In my view, the Christian religion is most important and one of the first things in which all children, under a free government ought to be instructed...No truth is more evident to my mind than that the Christian religion must be the basis of any government intended to secure the rights and privileges of a free people."

~Noah Webster- preface to 1828 Dictionary~

Young Peacemakers

Chris and the older kids have been attending a seminar on Sunday nights entitled, "Thinking Like a Christian". The emphasis is on the world-view of a believer, whether it would be secular, or Biblical.
Since Charity was not old enough to attend these session, Karla and I decided to begin a session of our own entitled "The Young Peacemaker". Since we'd be teaching it anyway, we invited a couple of moms with children who would also not be attending the 'big kids seminar'.
Charity, and her friend Meliah.
The goal is to teach the young people how to deal Biblically with conflict.
We teach a lesson, memorize a verse, read scripture together, do some role playing, do some puzzles and reading, and then...
serve refreshments.So far, it has been excellent training for these kids. This class will last 12 weeks.
