If yours is like
most, the congregation you belong to may have many nay saying voices when
it comes to intergenerational worship.
They insist Intergenerational worship is something that rarely
works for them. And complaints will often fall into one of two categories:
(1)
It coddles to the younger members and leaves the adults craving
substance and moral transformation; or
(2)
It is over the heads of the children who are invited and
when they end up squirming, the parents and other worshippers end up
feeling distracted.
But effective,
engaging Intergenerational Worship is not only possible - and a growing
favorite experience of children and young families - but it is also
becoming a valued format among older members under the right
circumstances. |
