There are at least two ways to do family discipleship at church.

One approach is highly programmatic.  What that means is the church will build robust programs where you drop off your kids and we teach them.  You drop off your kids and we teach them how to sing songs, and then you drop off your kids and we teach them how to pray, and then you drop off your kids and we teach them about global missions, and then you drop off your kids and we . . .

But at the end of the day they're going home with you -- and regardless of what we program we'll never have the influence you will in your time and moments with them.

Instead, our philosophy of ministry is to teach your children when you bring them -- but then pour more and more tools in your hands and be your biggest fans and your biggest cheerleaders as the head of your home.

And all you have to do is talk about the Big Idea (if you're part of Journey Church) on the way home.

All you have to do is pay attention to moments that already come in your family life.

All you have to do is let us help you mark the important milestones of your child's life.

All you have to do is build a figurative rock pile of spiritual memories.

To assist you we've provided this important website of information and helps:  www.jrnyparent.com

And be blessed.
