Over-Churched Children

Guest post by: Doug Wolter

Tony Kummer, from ministry-to-children.com, recently asked me to respond to the problem of over-churched kids. By over-churched kids, he means kids with too much religion and not enough actual interaction with Jesus. This is a relevant issue especially for pastors’ kids. My short answer is that we must model the gospel to our kids and get them on mission early as a church family relying on God's grace alone to save.
