A man said to me
If children cannot be quiet and still they need to leave the sanctuary.
Children are a distraction and they make it hard for people to hear the sermon.
This service is meant for adults.Why is it OK to say this about children? Would we say:
“This service is meant for Americans.”
“This service is meant for men.”
“This service is meant for able-bodied people.”
No, we would be horrified.
We would say NO. You cannot limit the worship space to one demographic!
So, church. Why is it OK to exclude kids?
- What does it mean for a child to “behave” when they’re around adults?
- How can the church be more inclusive towards all ages of people?
