Building Your Child's Faith

Creative ways to stimulate interest in the Bible, develop family worship, and lead your child to Christ. FROM THE BACK COVER: How can I teach my kids about God? "Responsibility for bringing up children in the faith belongs with parents by divine decree, and they have twenty years or less to get it done." Kids today are bombarded daily by messages that contradict their family's Christian beliefs. It's time for Christian parents to take the words of Proverbs to heart: "Train up a child in the way he should go" (Prov. 22:6). Rather than leave the task to the church or school, why not accept the responsibility for your own child's spiritual growth? In BUILDING YOUR CHILD'S FAITH, Alice Chapin gives parents helpful "how-to" advice for the often frustrating task of discipling your own children. With encouraging and practical suggestions for creating a nurturing home environments, she offers a wealth of resources for developing a child's "basic ingredients" of faith-worship, Bible reading, Scripture memorization, and prayer. Chapters include: --Your Child and the Bible. --You Can Teach Your Child to Pray. --Family Worship That Works. --When to Teach What. --The Ten-Minutes-a-Day Reading Plan. --How to lead Your Child to Christ.
