...helping kids think like Jesus.
The children's ministry at Colonial Heights
Christian Church exists to work alongside parents to help children
develop a Biblical worldview. In other words, we want children
to learn to think like Jesus. We do this by providing children
with four basic things...
1. Foundation.
Children need to have a foundation in the
scripture. They need to know what's in the Bible and how to
use it.
2. Focus.
Jesus knew what His purpose was on this
earth and He was not distracted from it. He maintained this
focus by spending time with God in prayer and worship.
Children are perfectly capable of true worship and we give them
opportunities to focus on God.
3. Filter.
We want children to develop a filter through
which they make all their decisions and choices. This filter
is founded in scripture and based on a relationship with Christ.
As they mature, we want every decision they make to be consistent
with God's principles and commands.
4. Faith.
We want children to have faith in all things.
"For you know that we dealt with
each of you as a father deals with his own children - encouraging,
comforting and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you
into His kingdom and glory." 1 Thes. 2: 11 -
