Connecting Church and School

Connecting Church and School: Teaching the Bible to School Children

In a world full of different philosophies and ideologies, it is vitally important that the message of the Bible, a book that has transformed the lives of many, as well as defining the laws and culture of numerous countries, is made known. Many years ago, a servant of God said “Here I am! Send me” (Isaiah 6:8b ESV). Today there is a great need for Believers to echo that same statement and to teach young children the wonderful message found in the Bible.

This book has been written, not by an expert, but someone who has endeavoured, through the local church, to develop a work in local schools. The author has drawn on his experience and observations to offer guidance and advice to anyone who has a desire to serve the Lord, by helping young children understand what the Bible teaches. Although the book is principally aimed at connecting with and teaching in Primary Schools (Children aged from 5-11 years old), it does contain useful lessons for those looking to teach older children. It will be a helpful guide, and offer encouragement to all who desire to work with local schools and teach children the transforming truths found in God’s Word.
