Equipping teachers to teach children

Principles of teaching of children

Know God’s Heart

A.W. Tozer’s foundational philosophy was that our lives (thoughts, feelings, actions, etc) grow out of our understanding of who God is. Have a wrong idea about God’s character or nature, and your life will reflect that false idea in one way or another. It is so important that you, as a parent, Sunday school teacher or children’s worker are leading children to know that God’s heart is towards them, that He is gracious and kind, that He seeks after them their whole life long, and that a life in relationship with this generous God is the best thing of all. Is this not the beauty of the Gospel? This booklet provides inspiration and practical ideas to help you share this glorious message with children.

Guidelines for the Christian Family

Guidelines for the Christian Family

The responsibility of Christian parents is a subject about which the Bible has much to say. The education of a child begins at birth. Long before the child learns to reason, he acquires feelings, attitudes, responses and habits that form his life and personality. What a wonderful privilege and responsibility God has given to us as Christian parents to help him in those early formative years! May the Lord use this book to encourage and equip you, as Christian parents, in your God-given task of bringing up your children “in the discipline and instruction of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4).

Bible Doctrines for children

How to Teach Bible Doctrines to Children

This manual helps children’s workers to better understand Bible doctrines and how to teach them to children. Children love stories and telling stories is often easier than explaining truths. But sooner or later children will ask the big question: what do these stories teach about God and about us? In today’s society, our children have a great need to understand the teaching of the Bible and it is important to teach those great truths accurately and interestingly. This book will help you to achieve these goals.

The Principles of Teaching

The subject of this book is “teaching”. Not the teaching of children specifically – but teaching! The principles of teaching adults are exactly the same as those for teaching children and the principles for teaching unsaved children are the same as those for teaching saved children. This book shows you what teaching is and how you can teach effectively in the service of the Lord. It is a book to study, not just to read and at the end of each chapter there is a little self-assessment chart.

U-can Lead Children to Christ

There is no greater thrill for a teacher of God’s Word to children than when a boy or girl comes and intimates, in some way, that he or she wishes to be saved.
