However, that is very uncomfortable for him and he only goes there when my husband works in Children's Church (once a month). The rest of the time he sits quietly in the main sanctuary with us (he is 8). He does learn things from our pastor and I think it would be unfair to force him to be separated from us. We both work full-time and weekends are truly our only family time. He just wants to be with us, his mom and dad. What is so wrong with that?A Fixed Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16356563583331055009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023992503428723050.post-72568458792869104692012-11-07T04:00:04.214-06:002012-11-07T04:00:04.214-06:00Right on.

My kids, 3years to 7 ears, learn so much during their special time in our church of 4000 that I wouldn't even think about them coming to our service. Oh, and the one time my boy did. I'm going to sin and brag a little. My son quoted the books of the old test. bible and their significant stories. He had just turned 7 and had me crying in the back row. (Tough to do to a hard nose Cop/dad) Then during quiet time he schooled me on 1 Timothy 4:12 (Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.) How did he knows this verse? He learned it in kids church!<br />Brian, please check out my new blog: http://1guysroadtrip.blogspot.com/ and give me your opinion.Murse Studenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08153314597931409921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6023992503428723050.post-80872192119804984892012-10-26T17:09:03.002-05:002012-10-26T17:09:03.002-05:00I totally agree with you.

Though I think the wording is a little, off putting, the statement is great and sets the precedent for parents. <br /><br />When I started reading this blog entry I almost got all sorts of feisty, because I could see it going against what Newspring stated and, as a Children's Ministry Director, I can not explain how hard it is to get parents to really understand that we're not an hour long babysitter. We have a curriculum, we train our teachers and our particular program is designed to be two hours long (covering both services that we offer for adults and allowing adults to get to small groups on Sunday)<br /><br />If you don't put it clearly somewhere, as a ministry and church, you run into a lot of issues. We even have a bright orange notice stating that kids need to be in their own classes/rooms. <br /><br />Thanks for the wonderful explanation all laid out with all my thoughts :) Pandamoniumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15397712749225059491noreply@blogger.com
