Parenting Vision, Overview, & Church Partnership Beliefs:
We believe God have given parents as the primary means by which a child is to be discipled. God holds parents accountable, not for the child’s fruitfulness, but their own faithfulness as they seek to disciple their children by God’s grace.
We believe the church is the primary place by which believers grow in their Christian walk and thus see our involvement and discipleship in the lives of children as a partnership with parents and an intentional responsibility.
Our goal in this partnership is to lay a framework and roadmap as guidance to assist parents in their pursuit of discipling their children.
Please select your child's age group (below) and each group/category will include:
Goals – The goals stated in each stage are rough targets of what to aim for in helping to give direction and purpose for discipling your child.
How? – Included in this section are recommended processes to achieve the stated goals, by God’s grace, generally and specifically in relationship to parents and the church.
Transition Celebrations – Included in this section will be exciting and encouraging ways for the parents and children to clearly recognize, identify, and celebrate a new stage in the child’s life and development.
Recommended Resources – This will include books, videos, articles, and other resources that could be helpful in equipping the parents and/or child at a specific stage in the child’s life and development. Resources with an asterisk indicate the ones we feel are the most important.
