We believe churches must embrace four important biblical principles to do so. Family (Deuteronomy 6:1-8): Parents are the number one spiritual influence on the spiritual life of their children. Parents have an average of 3,000 hours each year with their children, whereas churches have approximately 300. Parents have a calling to teach and train their children at home. We are committed to training and providing resources for families so that they can successfully disciple their children at home and participate in the Great Commission. Discipleship (Matthew 28:19-20): Churches are called to fulfill the Great Commission by making disciples. Through proper training, Ministry Involvement (Ephesians 4:11-13): Churches are called to equip the saints—including children— for ministry. The Holy Spirit has gifted every believer in the body of Christ, and these gifts bring purpose and identity, especially to children as they begin to grow in their faith. Through proper training, churches move children from being spectators to fully engaging them in the church’s ministry and the Great Commission. Missions (Acts 1:8): Seventy percent of those who trust Christ internationally do so between the ages of 4 and 14
