One Generation Tour
The recent series of events linked to the research from Mark Griffiths' research - 'One Generation from Extinction' proved very popular. Events across the UK drew nearly 1,000 people in total and will hopefully inspire many churches to look afresh at their mission to connect with children in their communities.

Its taken me a few years to finally source the original See and Know programme for babies and preschoolers which builds on innate spirituality.
Can write more about this if anyone so desires.
it depends on what you mean by adult focused.... yes it is wrong to have adult service with children present but taking the children out for somnething "more appropriate" is often used as a get out by churches for hiving their children off for enter…
I can where you are coming from carolynn, but just because children are in an adult service, in no way means they are included. The worship is just about always adult focused and children are excluded by what happens instead of where they are. Is th…

Give age-appropriate Bibles and Bible storybooks to children. A range of…
Interesting comments ... What's the rest of the book like Dave ? Is it worth an import from the States ? Britain has a lot more 'small' churches !
I'm a children's songwriter and producer from Devon, UK and have released a children's CD "All Aboard the Heaven Express". It is fun and Biblically based, and children (and children's workers) who have heard it have really enjoyed it.
It'll be grea…
a place to discuss theological ideas and check them out ... what IS God really saying? ... how much of what is being said is just stuff?
Spiritual formation does occur before verbal if it is allowed. We run a weekday Eucharist for babaies and carers and include the children in the service through play related to the liturgy.....I act as litrugical play leader.....I have seen pre verb…
Evidence is mounting that suggests humans do have basic sense of morality from the very start of life. It appears some sense of good and evil “seems to be bred in the bone” (New York Times). Romans 2:15 states that the law of God is written on the h…

Will You Make A Difference
You can download the video here or here
Children Matter! is committed to helping the UK Church connect with more children, enabling them to be all that God intends. The vision is to see the church reach at least double the number of children over the next decade. To that end, we are asking Will You Make a Difference? Visit www.wymad.org.uk to find out more and get your copy of a DVD of resources to inspire and equip you to do just that.
