...	Here's a common scenario: Your children grow up going to church. They go with you every Sunday. They hear the Bible stories from Sunday School. They learn cute songs about God. You're thrilled! But there's one thing missing. Somehow in all of that they never learned how to study the Bible for themselves. And without that, their spiritual growth could be handicapped for the rest of their lives. How to help our children grow in personal knowledge of the Bible? Read the Bible with them. Memorize verses together. Teach them how to use a concordance. And if you don't know how, you
can  learn along with them! Finally, help them connect the Bible to real life, applying God's Word to their daily struggles.

Proverbs 22 says, "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it." Ephesians 6 says, "Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord." Our children are God's gift. Train them to study the Bible for themselves and they will be able to take the Word of God to their world!
