Throwback Thursday #3

For some who haven't been around here that long, this website is a few years old, and there are wonderful things that I'd like to put in front some of our "newbies" and remind some of the rest of you about. So, we're revisiting some early posts each week on Thursdays!

Interesting Research about Children and Church

After reading this article, I'm not sure what it all means for church leaders or for parents, but I do find this kind of research incredibly interesting. The thing with research is that it doesn't guarantee anything, but I did find the correlation between involvement at church as a young child/teenager and active faith in adulthood very interesting. What this article isn't saying is that your child is guaranteed to have an active faith as long as you bring them to church. It's far more complicated than that.
