Children & GOD-at what age?

 

My first prayer book 236x300 Children & GOD at what age?
A Strong Foundation

 
Dear Mrs. Figgins:
My husband and I have gone to church on occasion.  Lately we’ve been talking that we’d like to start attending on a regular basis.
We have two kids and are wondering at what age do children begin to know or understand about Jesus and the Bible?

Dear Samantha & Rick
As parents, we need to do all we can to teach our children about GOD’S love, and what Jesus did for us.
Think of it this way:  when your children were born, when did they begin to feel or know about your love?  When did they start learning to trust you?  They knew it from the very beginning.
Children may not be able to understand everything, but love and trust is an early essential.  Therefore, it’s important to begin teaching them from the start.
Talk with them in ways they can comprehend.  Read them age appropriate Bible stories.  Teach them simple prayers.
As time goes on, they will understand more and more,  and you will be laying an indelible influence and foundation for their entire life.
