Family and Spiritual Life Survey
Are the families in your church spiritually healthy?
The Family and Spiritual Life Survey is a powerful tool designed to help church leadership identify areas where families in your congregation need more support and encouragement at home. Developed by two EPC pastors, this survey provides valuable insights into family spiritual practices.
Choose from three survey options of varying lengths (15, 25, or 45 questions) to suit your needs. Print the survey, distribute it to families, and collect their responses for review.
Reviewing the surveys will give you an inside look into how the families in your church are practicing their faith at home. Our findings show a significant disconnect: while church leaders often assume that families are effectively passing on their faith, many parents feel ill-equipped and are engaging in minimal spiritual activities.
This tool will highlight areas that need attention, allowing you to better support your congregation in fostering a vibrant spiritual life at home.
It’s Never Too Early
Train your staff in how to partner with families for effective discipleship.
Today’s culture is significantly impacting our churches. Programs that worked for years are less effective. New demands require ministries to commit time and resources like never before. Respect for Christian truths and values is eroding. How do we as the church equip parents to embrace their faith and help their children sail through the increasingly hostile waters they navigate each day?
Those in ministry need to be clear about our mission and embrace the Christian values we hold dear. We need to be willing to think about ministry differently. We need to engage parents in spiritually guiding their children 24/7. And we need ideas that can work for our congregation, no matter its size, status or wealth.
Written by a Children & Family Ministries veteran of over four decades, the book addresses the roles the church and the family play in creating a spiritual environment in which children flourish. It is filled with practical ideas to help churches stem the tide of change and glide proficiently in the waters of our own environments and experiences.
Foundations for Parents
A crash course in raising kids God’s way.
No one said it would be easy… but raising children who know, love, and serve the Lord is worth every bit of the effort. We created this hands-on, interactive guidebook to help you along the way.
By the end of this 10-chapter study, you will understand God’s plan for your family and be equipped to pass on the faith to your children. Wherever you are on your journey of faith, we invite you to join us for this parenting crash-course. You will be encouraged, challenged, and transformed by the God who doesn’t demand perfection but redeems our brokenness and delights to work in our families.
Use this book as a couple, in your small group, or for a weekly Bible study or Sunday School class.
