Tag: children and worship

The real issue I think we need to discuss is where should children sit, because that's an issue of life and death according to the bible.

Yes, children should be welcome to sit in worship services with their parents; worship is for everyone, and it's better (and more successful) for children to get used to a church environment from babyhood rather than suddenly be expected to sit still and pay attention when they are deemed old enough, especially in today's culture of near constant entertainment.

It depends. My immediate response to this question is a resounding “yes,” but then I think about screaming toddlers and hungry infants.
