Teaching Children the Bible
TitusOneNine has a very good post on "Teaching Children the Bible." Basically, the article describes the detrimental effect that "children's church" is having on future generations. By being separated from the main worship service, our future generations are not being sufficiently exposed to the Word.
This is rather foreign to me as I usually had either religion classes during school or attended Sunday school. Our family always worshipped together as a family. I heard what my parents heard. I saw what my parents saw.
When raising my two girls, they were in the pew beside us. They had to face forward. They heard what I heard. They saw what I saw. I and the Church passed on what we heard from the Lord (1 Cor 11:23-26).
I also find "Children's Church" to be unbiblical. We know from Luke 2:41-43 that Jesus accompanied his parents on their annual pilgrmage to Jerusalem for Passover. A few sentences later we find the Child in the temple discussing scripture with the rabbi's, not attending "children's temple."
