Parenting | Kidmin at Home (via Dan Scott Blog)
While our church does not use 252 Basics, there are some principles here in this blog that translate very easily. In other words, just change the titles of the resources to LEDGE Connection and the Living Inside Out at Home page. Good stuff! As most of you know, I’m a HUGE 252Basics fan. I love...

Should Kids Bring Their Bibles to Church?
I found an interesting blog by a children's pastor named Sam Luce. Most kids at our church don't bring their Bibles to church. I'd like to change that.
