Sound Teaching
Teaching children Biblical truth is very important. The Children's Ministry at Calvary strives to teach children truth in such a way that they view God accurately and respond to Him in humble pursuit. The fundamental values of our teaching, therefore are these:
- God-centered.
God is the Hero of every story, the Sovereign of all creation, and the Savior to anyone who believes in Him.
- Basic Bible knowledge.
Children are taught a comprehensive understanding of Bible stories, Christ-like virtues, and theology.
- Solid theology.
Every Bible story, Christian character trait, and doctrine teaches who God is and how He works.
- The discipline of Scripture memorization.
Bible meditation and memorization are the keys for to lock in theology (who God is and how He works) and live by faith.
- Practical application of Truth.
Truth must be practically applied to the real world of each person no matter how young or old.
- Age-appropriate teaching.
Learning about God can be fun and interactive yet reverent and substantive.
- Sincere Spirit-filled worship.
The spiritual appetites of children must be trained to enjoy God and not bring attention to oneself.
