“When children are welcomed into faith communities as members who legitimately contribute to the life of the church, we broaden our views of community to include those who are often marginalized because of their age.”
― 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 would happen if we began treating children as equals on our mutual quests to follow Jesus?”
― David M. Csinos, Children's Ministry in the Way of Jesus

“Letting children see that we don’t have it all figured out gives them permission to live with questions at the same time that they hold on to what they do know—that God loves them and that he is holding them in his hand. This allows their faith to grow so that it doesn’t buckle with the first questions.”9”
― David M. Csinos, Children's Ministry in the Way of Jesus
