Book Review: Raising Kids to Follow Christ
In 2023, George Barna released the findings of a study done on spirituality and biblical worldviews stating that 90 percent of children 13 – 14 years old believe there are not absolute moral truths; 68% of parents think of themselves as Christians but only 2% of them have a true biblical worldview; and 56% of children’s pastors believe there is no moral truth. (Barna, George. Raising Spiritual Champions, 2023). Those are unsettling stats. If you’re looking for practical ways to point children to Christ, then consider this book review of Raising Kids to Follow Christ written by Lee Ann Mancini.
