“we remain faithful to the way of Jesus, who took a child into his arms and saw her for the unique person she was, when we offer radical hospitality to children for who they are, regardless of their race, interests, socioeconomic background, gender and so on.”
― David M. Csinos, Children's Ministry in the Way of Jesus

“As we reshape how we do ministry with children in order help children with special needs fully participate, we can do the same for children from other cultures. We can explore together ways that Christians of different cultures read the Bible, sing songs to God, share communion and work for justice. As our world continues to become more culturally diverse, the need for children’s ministry that addresses and embraces this diversity is going to become more apparent.”
― David M. Csinos, Children's Ministry in the Way of Jesus

“We believe that children matter to the life of the church. We believe that the church can only be the people of God when members—including the youngest—participate in its life, engage in core practices and exercise their gifts as vital members of the body of Christ.”
― David M. Csinos, Children's Ministry in the Way of Jesus

“What current practices are central to your congregation? How can you more fully engage children in these practices? How can children offer leadership to these practices?”
