Synopsis

Children's ministry is being pushed and pulled by education models, statistical analysis, growth techniques, cultural change and technological advancements. But with the weight of all these influences, little attention is given to what ought to be the most important influence in molding the shape of children's ministry - the Word of God. Whether your children's ministry is in your home or in your church, the purpose of this book is to enable you to build a children's ministry that is rock-solid - modeled up scriptural teachings: Each chapter of this book starts with a Scripture passage- a "rock" for your foundation. The Scripture passage specifically refers to children or ministering to them. Each chapter contains a thorough discussion of implications and applications.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

A Biblical Foundation for Teaching Children

Sometimes we view children in terms of their future value. But to Jesus, children were precious in the here and now, and He gave them His full attention and love. When we view children in the same way, we will seek to nurture and teach them using the Word of God as our foundation.

Whether you're ministering to your own children at home or someone else's at church, Rock-Solid Kids will help you raise strong children who stand firm in their faith. The plan presented in this book is based on eight practical and inspirational scriptural principles called "foundation rocks." Building on this foundation, each chapter teaches the importance, responsibility, content, and golden opportunity of children's ministry.

The principles in this book are exactly what we as parents and teachers need to help us develop a set of convictions--based solidly on the Word of God--for raising and training kids who have a rock-solid faith.

"This book is filled with insight and instruction. I highly recommend it."--Dr. Jack Graham, pastor, Prestonwood Baptist Church
