This is how my conversation with my two youngest children went last night...
Rob: What did you guys talk about today at church?
Daughter: We talked about Joseph and the coat of many colors.
Rob: Where is that in the Bible?
Daughter: Ummm.... Genesis thirtysomething
Rob: Bingo. (Flipping through bible...) Genesis 35 I think. Now, how about you, son. What did you learn today?
Son: I'm desperate.
Rob: Tell me more. Desperate for what?
Son: Desperate for Jesus.
And that is what I love about our children's ministry.... teaching children the Scriptures AND the point of the Scriptures... to desperately depend on the Christ whom the Scriptures reveal!
