Every Age Every Stage

Today’s parents feel ill-equipped to spiritually train and educate their preschoolers, elementary kids, and teenagers. Based on the principle that kids and teens learn and comprehend concepts differently as they grow in maturity, Every Age, Every Stage provides an age-suitable discipleship approach, equipping parents to teach their children biblical truths from the ten concept areas of God, Jesus, Holy Spirit, Bible, Salvation, Creation, Church, People, Family, and Community and World. The wise discipleship plan presented in Every Age, Every Stage is known as Levels of Biblical Learning©. This framework for babies through teens was developed over a period of several years by thought leaders in preschool, kids, student, and next-gen ministries. Levels of Biblical Learning has been taught at workshops, colleges, and seminaries, and incorporated in Bible Study curriculum. The book also will assist ministry leaders and teachers as they prepare a vision for their ministries and teach biblical concepts in the classroom, putting children and teens on the right path to a life of growth in biblical knowledge.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Parents must discipline their children, but they must do so in a way that does not involve punishment. Punishment sends the message that your love is equal to your approval, but discipline gives your child the message that you are willing to let him suffer for his actions. #2 Parents often have unrealistic expectations for their children’s behavior. To help you put things into perspective, each chapter of this book contains developmental information with suggestions for realistic behavioral expectations for each age and stage. #3 Your child’s personality is formed by the constant interplay of temperament and environment. Your child’s activity level, rhythmicity, distractibility, and temperament will all affect how he behaves. #4 Your child’s temperament is made up of his response to new situations, his adaptability to new experiences, his attention span and persistence, and his intensity of reaction. If your child is adaptable in temperament, transitioning from one activity to another will not be a big deal.
