As Pastor Brian began a new mini-series on the Christian Family, he dealt with two implications of Ephesians 6:1:</p>
<p>1) The Apostle Paul Assumed That Children Would Be Present With Their Families In Church</p>

<p>Therefore, we need to beware of believing children don't need to be saved, of not evangelizing children, and using unBiblical decisionistic methods to evangelize our children.</p>
