Book excerpt: Brain research tells us that a child who has never known love, cannot love. Likewise, faith cannot be taught, it has to be "caught." In order for a child to have faith, he or she must see that faith modeled. Modeling faith includes both words and actions. Children must hear faith stories and see how faith impacts their lives. Children must see faith in action. This book by Marjorie Suchocki provides teachers and parents with the appropriate words to talk about God and about Jesus in language that the children (and adults) can easily understand: * God is the Creator. * God is with us in good times and bad times. * God's presence is spiritual and we see God though the effects that God has on the world. * God transforms us and because of this transformation, we can be agents of transformation in others. * God wants us to be in relationship and we do this through prayer. * Through the Bible we discover who God is and how God wants us to live. * We see God through Jesus.

How can I be sure of salvation? How should a Christian live?

It's all yours, and it's free." Peace with God is a timeless message of hope for all those struggling with despair and loneliness. Billy Graham will beckon you on the path to lasting peace as he describes the basics of the biblical message, the problem of sin, the tenets of the Christian way of life, and the glorious hope for the future.

Download or read book Through a Child s Eyes Christian Parenting from Infancy to Five Year written by Pam Carson and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A child’s early years lay the foundation for nurturing a child’s faith and planting the seeds of how they are valued in God’s eyes. The insights of how children think and how they process the world around them help us to meet their needs while building trust. The first five years form the basis for this trust. They are learning everything—from walking, talking, understanding, feeling, learning right from wrong, and mastering the English language. They live in a world of fantasy where anything is possible. Children tend to believe anything we tell them without question! That is why we must be especially careful what we say to them. Self-evaluation of our personalities, our journey through life, and how all this has molded our faith and affected our communication can help us raise our children. We can learn to be more sensitive to the little soul God has given us. These little ones are like a new journal, and as parents, we get the blessing to write on the first pages of a child’s life. These are the tender years. These years are the foundation of a child’s view of themself, their faith, and the world around them.
