Discipling Children in a Biblical Worldview
What is Footings for Children?
Footings for Children: Imparting a Biblical Worldview So They Can Thrive is a powerful, tested curriculum designed to help parents, churches, and Christian educators disciple the children in their lives.
We want our children to thrive in life, to grow strong, and to flourish in every circumstance. We desire for them to prosper in the best sense, developing and using their abilities to bless others and the world around them all their days.
Yet, most would agree that the conditions for raising children are as intense and difficult as ever. While statistics highlight this fact, they are unable to portray the pain and disillusionment experienced.
How can we equip children to grow strong and actually thrive and flourish in this world? We must impart to our children a foundational understanding of truth and reality upon which all future viewpoints will be formed and decisions will be made. We must give them the footings on which they can understand all of life clearly and accurately. In short, today’s youth need a Biblical worldview.
A Teacher’s Guide is available to accompany several available student versions for adolescents, young readers (under age 11), non-readers, and even a devotional version for when time is limited.
Each version has 28 or more lessons that guide students in learning through Scripture, discussion, journaling, and activities. The lessons span six units that teach (a) About God, (b) Made in God’s Image, (c) God’s Purpose for Mankind, (d) Our Problem and God’s Solution, (e) God’s Design for the Family, and (f) God’s Design for Money.
