� Feb. 26, 2008 - Children in Worship Services
I came across this very insightful article by Noel Piper, John Piper's wife, over at the Desiring God Blog.
She echoes many of my thoughts. I remember waiting until Chase was old enough to "finally" go by himself to "children's church". Oh, how I now regret getting him used to church being a play time rather than a special time of the week to spend worshiping our Lord and savior.
We are now working to reverse our error, both with Chase and Alyssa. We fully expect that soon they will both stay with us for the entire service on most Sundays.
Here is an excerpt from Noel's article:
In this article, we hope to do two things: 1) demonstrate that parents (or some responsible adult) should bring little children to the Sunday morning worship service rather than send them to a "children's church"; 2) give some practical advice about how to do it.
