Family Sunday School:
Can It Work for You?
A New Strategy for Re-Uniting the Family in Church
by Fred Cooper
Are your family members part of separate, age-segregated communities within the church?
or
Does each member regularly meet and relate to people of all ages?
Is it possible for whole families to study the Bible TOGETHER successfully?
Is it possible for your kids to impart wisdom to adults?
Is there another possible model for Sunday School that will unite the family?
Sunday School Quiz
1. Does your family immediately disperse to different places the minute you arrive at church?
2. Does your family EVER do anything together while you are at church? (other than worship service attendance)
3. Would it be a good thing for your children to see their dad leading them in spiritual quests? (rather than other teachers)
4. Do your children have the opportunity to meet and interact with people of all ages at church? (or only with their age-mates)
5. Do your children usually learn wisdom from those in their peer group?
If, after pondering the answers to these questions, you would be open to another possibility, I challenge you to listen to this CD!
