Flashback: Child Visitation
Kidmin Talk

Visiting at home will give you greater insight into the interests and needs of kids, and endear them to you so that they are more eager and ready to receive instruction from you.  

 

Ever had a really good friend who had never been to your house? Didn't think so. If you want to be their friend, you've got to get over to their house.

Kid·ol·o·gy:   n.  1. the study of kids and their world.

 

In this episode of Kidmin Talk, Karl talks

about being an effective minister to today's children from within the context of their culture.  

 

A working knowledge of a kid's world is an inroad to their heart. When children see that you are genuinely interested in their world, they in turn will become interested in what you are interested in - namely God's Word and the Good News of Jesus.
