DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt was my hope when writing this book to also plant seeds of faith in our children's hearts. I have nineteen grandkids, and I pray every day that they will find the Lord at a young age, as the world is trying so hard to pull them away. I wanted to write a book that would remind them that Jesus tells them to come to him. If God knows those who are his before they are born, it makes sense that the sooner our children learn about Jesus, the better. Planting the Seeds for Jesus is about a little girl's love for Jesus and how excited she gets when Jesus uses her to share her faith with her friends. In this story, God is using her love for gardening to teach her lessons about him, as she will have to trust him for rain and thank him when he sends it. This is a book about not just how God made the world but how God can talk with her as she reads her Bible and learns to walk with him. It will not only touch our children's hearts but also touch our hearts as we remember God loves it when we come to him like children. You could find yourself reading Planting the Seeds for Jesus to remember how God wants us to love him with a childlike faith.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIt is important that we introduce our children to Jesus, and that we, as adults, also approach him with childlike faith, acceptance, and trust. --Virginia H. Loewen An encore presentation of the immensely popular 1978 book, The Brown Bag, Planting Seeds of Faith provides entertaining, 10-minute lessons fur use in worship services with four to eight year-olds. Each sermon message focuses on a particular Scripture passage and includes a take away--an object or suggestion of a way to apply and share one's faith away from church--learning by doing. Stretching Further, an optional feature, can he used to foster additional discussion on abstract concepts. Some of the 26 sermon topics include: Did Jesus Have a Christmas Tree! (Hosea 14:8) ¥ We can count on God to be our friend and helper through all seasons of the year. A Valentine from God (Psalm 103:11-12) ¥ The Bible is a love letter from God to us. Pretzels and Prayers (Jeremiah 29:12) ¥ God always hears us--whenever, wherever, and however we pray. Jesus Uses Signs (John 2:11) ¥ Jesus' miracles were signs that he is the Son of God Going Fishing (Matthew 4: 19; Mark 1: 17) ¥ When we follow Jesus, we can attract others to him, too. Planting Seeds of Faith is an essential nondenominational resource that will assist pastors and laity with the important ministry of preaching to children. Virginia H.

Stacey is a wonderful teacher, mother, and homeschooler, and a superb writer you can count on. Dr. Randy Colver, author, pastor and teacher at Coweta Community Church I home-schooled my four children for twelve years while using Staceys Children of Faith as my Bible curriculum. The Scriptures became very practical and well understood as we studied, prayed, and used the crafts. My children used the prayer guide for years. I believe there are many more children and adults who would genuinely grow in their love and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.Sharlott Williams

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAs Catholic parents, we have one fundamental mission: to raise children who know and love God, and who are so in love with Christ that they can't help but share his message. We are called not only to be disciples ourselves, but to be discipleship parents, evangelizing our children so they become disciples, too. That sounds great, but we know this is not always easy. The culture often stands in the way of our raising whole and holy children. Sometimes our own failures, wounds, and weaknesses make it difficult to pour ourselves fully into the mission. Even if we are working to plant the seeds of faith, how can we ensure that the soil is cultivated so the seeds can grow and flourish? In Discipleship Parenting, Kim Cameron-Smith provides tools and insights to help parents foster seven ideal growing conditions in the home: Love Balance Play Merciful Discipline Empathy Radiant Faith A Strong Marriage Raising children to know and love Christ, and to share that love with others, is the most important work we will ever do.
