Have you ever thought about how many people one child interacts with throughout the course of his or her life?

Children have their whole lives ahead of them. And everywhere they go, they meet people. So, just think, when a child is equipped to share their faith, the Gospel goes everywhere they go. And, have you noticed that children don’t seem to have the same hang-ups talking about Jesus that we adults often have?

They don’t worry about what someone will think. They just want their friend or their mom or dad or grandparent to know Jesus – and so they tell them about Him. And in case you’re wondering if it’s really possible for children to share the Gospel, I can tell you from experience with Hope For Kids, our children's evangelism discipleship program, that children can share the Gospel and, dare I say, sometimes even better than some adults.

So, don’t forget that once children know Jesus, they can share Jesus.
