For many parents, taking their children to church is one of life’s greatest joys. There is something deeply moving about watching little ones share your faith and begin to learn about Jesus and His sacrifice. But when is the right time to start taking children to church? Is there such a thing as taking them too early? Do babies and toddlers really benefit from being there? Many parents believe they do.
After all, church is more about the spirit than the body. The earlier children are introduced to God’s presence, the more it can shape their hearts. Prayer, especially, is a central pillar of Christianity. Through prayer, people build a personal relationship with Jesus.
Parents often treasure the moments when their children first learn to pray, capturing them in endearing—and sometimes funny—videos. I recently saw such a clip, featuring the father of twin sisters. He decided it was time to teach them how to pray: how to join their hands, how to begin their prayers, and, most importantly, how to speak from their hearts as if God were right there.
The video below shows another touching moment: two siblings performing their version of “He Arose.” Their sweet and innocent rendition left the entire audience in awe.
Be sure to share this inspiring performance with your family and friends after watching.
