Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Junior Church in Action: With Twenty Junior Church Sermonets
IT is oft repeated that the children of the church are the Church of to-morrow. There is no way to save the manhood of the world except to save the boyhood of the world. It is folly supreme to plan on saving the woman hood of the world if we neglect the girlhood of the world. When we save an adult, we are likely to save a unit; when we save a child, we save a multiplication table. There will be no church to-morrow if there is no religion of childhood to-day. What is told in this volume is a definite contribution toward building the church of to-morrow by building the childhood of to-day into the church. There is a vast dif ference between baiting a crowd and building a Church. There is a long spiritual difference between assembling a congregation and building a church. There is a tremendous Kingdom difference between erecting a build ing and building a church. A Church is more than brick and mortar, more than stone and shingles, more than nails and paint, more than window glass and furniture. One may build all this material into a Church building without building a church. A church is a group of folks who live and labor as a family circle of which God is a real father; in which each behaves like a Child of God.
