Sermons About Children
Generation Next
1 O my people, hear my teaching;listen to the words of my mouth. 2 I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter hidden things, things from of old- 3 what we have heard and known, what our fathers have told us. 4 We will not hide them from their children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD, His power, and the wonders He has done. 5 He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which He commanded our forefathers to teach their children, 6 so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children. 7 Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget His deeds but would keep His commands. Psalm 78:1-7

Godly Children
In the last several passages of Ephesians Paul has been highlighting the relationships in which submission and honor is important. Is it any wonder then that he includes the relationship of Children to parents? However, this is no passing comment or obligatory nod, but rather a topic that is extremely important to God and has dramatic consequences in your lives.

Welcoming Jesus
God calls each of us to nurture and protect those God entrusts to our care for as long as they are in our care—and even those we never meet, such as the abandoned children of Haiti or the war victims about whom Nuhad Tomeh told us Thursday when he visited us. God fills each of us with talents and skills for welcoming those who need us. We can wipe a tear--bandage a scraped knee--comfort a scraped heart--tutor a struggling student—encourage a struggling adult--hold a hand—offer a hand-up--give a smile--pray for God’s children everywhere. Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes not me, but the one who sent me.

Blessing the Little Ones
Jesus welcomed the little ones through touch and prayer. His disciples, for whatever reason, tried to hinder them from coming to Christ. From this they learned something of Jesus' deep love for the littlest and further learned that God's kingdom was entered through the simple unassuming faith of a little child.

Nurturing Babies and Little Kids
This message is not about the children in our nursery or children's Bible class. This message is about you as a child of God. This message is about your spiritual growth from spiritual infancy to Christian maturity. Let's compare some aspects of human child development with spiritual growth. There are two parallels that I want to mention today that will help you understand the importance of our growing as children of God.

Parents are the most influential people in a child’s life. Good parents always want what is best for their children. They want good things for their kids: to be happy, productive and moral.

By looking at major Bible themes, Lead Pastor Jeff Lawrence helps parents avoid the traps that damage a child’s faith.
