What Happens When Children Become Evangelists?
A child shares about Jesus and her experience of church in conversations with a friend. She extends an invitation to “come and see.” The experience is positive and soon her family begins to check it out. She invites another friend, who invites another friend…and over and over again the good news multiplies through words and actions that positively influence other children and adults. Sound to good to be true? Hardly! Dozens of testimonies show it is just this simple. The key is teaching children that its okay and good to invite. In this experience children grow in their spiritual conversation skills. They learn to see themselves as inviters and sharers of the Good News of God in Jesus Christ. Children benefit from their experience of evangelism by: * Developing a deeper understanding of their faith as they share their faith. * Developing healthy, positive, Christ-centered relationships with others. * Experiencing the love of God and seeing the effect of the Holy Spirit changing lives
