“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. And you shall be My witnesses, telling people about me everywhere – in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” And after He had said these things, He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. Acts 1:8-9 TPV
Children are never too young to begin learning the scriptures. There is nothing more urgent or necessary than raising up the next generation to be a theologically well-formed generation. And, while books of Bible stories are good and necessary, children have to go beyond Bible stories to actual theology. The next generation of Christians are going to be called to stand firm and to make an answer for their faith in a way that no previous generation of Christians have. In our increasingly divided society, it is of paramount importance to start training children from their earliest days to know and to love the Word of God. Danielle Hitchen, Catechesis Books, Adapted
